Tegan is SO looking forward to her 14th birthday. That is all that her, and her friends, have been talking about and planning for months. The big day arrives but Tegan's big plans are absolutely destroyed very early in the morning. She is forced to spend the whole day with her grandmother and she is not very happy about that.
The day, however, becomes one action filled adventure after another. Everything that happens turns out differently to anything that she ever expected. She learns to look at her grandmother in a totally different way.
