β¦ Synopsis
Fourth-grader Calvin lives near the beach in Oahu with his mom and little sister. Mom says: βYouβre the man of the house.β But Calvinβs not great at being the man of the house, or taking care of his responsibilities. Heβs too busy having fun with his pals, and avoiding Tito, the bully.

It introduces a wonderful multicultural cast of characters, including Mr. Purdy, who calls his fourth-grade class Boot Camp; Uncle Scoop, who runs the lunch wagon at the beach; Ledward, Momβs 6'7" boyfriend; and gorgeous, intimidating, 15-year-old Stella-from-Texas, who arrives to be the live-in babysitterβand to step all over Calvinβs turf.
