Dot waitresses on roller skates at the Dairy Bob, doesnтАЩt care for smoking, at least partly on account of her dad having never returned from a cigarette run, and carries on the family tradition of philosophizing. Life hasnтАЩt done her any favors in her seventeen years so far. But if there was ever a heroine built for turning things upside down and seeing what shakes out, itтАЩs Dot. Determined to find out who she is and why sheтАЩs the way she is, an opportunity presents itself when her heretofore-unknown uncle suddenly moves his camper into the front yard.
