When Daisy's dad, Tom Hunter, receives an unexpected $100 bonus for his work, he's determined to treat his family to a fancy Sunday dinner in a fancy restaurant, The Tamarack Inn. But with five children ranging in age from twelve to one the dinner doesn't go as he plans, leading to embarrassment, commotion, and tension when the bill comes due. Based on the author's own childhood experience. A warm, delightful coming of age story.
