Publisher's Synopsis
This story was the very first book published by Dorothy Gilman Butters. We are re-releasing it in hopes of another generation of readers will enjoy this engaging tale. After all, who hasn't thought about jumping into a converted camper and have an adventure or three?
A tale of five lonely people who are thrown together by fate to live and work together as they travel around the country for the summer. There is a hapless father reuniting with his teenage daughter, a beauty queen trying to decide if she wants to settle down and marry, a teenage boy who just wants to get out of an abusive foster family situation and an artist who would like to 'live' a little. They encounter troubles to overcome, figure out different ways to keep the bus going and each other fed. They go from complete strangers to creating a family of their own.
