HarperCollins, 2012

Jake Semple and E.D. Applewhite are back, this time facing a financial meltdown E.D.'s father has called ""the end of the world "" Famously creative Randolph Applewhite hatches a plan to save the family from poverty and starvation: They will turn the sixteen acres of their family compound, Wit's End, into "Eureka ," a summer camp for creative children. The plan will demand the all-out efforts of the whole family, including Jake, who has managed to survive his first year in their home school. The whole thing "seems" like a good idea . . .

. . . until--in the midst of the ordinary chaos of temperamental artists; talented, intense, headstrong campers; a dead possum; and rampaging goats--anonymous, threatening notes begin mysteriously appearing in the Applewhites' roadside mailbox. Can E.D., Jake, and the "Eureka " campers prevent a head-on collision with disaster?

In this hilarious, masterful sequel to Stephanie S. Tolan's Newbery Honor Book, "Surviving the Applewhites," the Applewhite family returns, more outrageous than ever.

Learn more from Stephanie herself in this great YouTube video Applewhites At Wit's End! It makes you wonder... are the Applewhites really based on the Tolan family?
