In "School's Out" by Johanna Hurwitz, the school year comes to an end, and siblings Charlie and his younger sister, Liz, are excited about their summer break. They have plans for fun and adventure, but when they discover that their friend, who is supposed to visit, might not be able to come, their excitement wanes. As they navigate their summer expectations, they learn important lessons about friendship, family, and the unpredictable nature of summer plans. Through a series of events, they find new ways to make the most of their time together, embracing the joys and challenges of childhood. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
