Thirteen-year-old Kaitlyn Perez is a very professional and well organized babysitter, but suddenly she finds herself in competition with a boy and the only thing she knows about him is that his nickname is Doc, he lets the kids he is babysitting run wild, and he is probably in her class--and that is only the beginning, as the stress causes her to quarrel with both her best friend, Piper, and her sister, Eve.

Zeke Meeks will be nine soon, but he is not looking forward to a party that his sisters want to take over and nobody but his closest friends want to attend--but the alternative is going to Grace Chang's party on the same day, and she is really scary.

Usually Zeke loves Halloween, but this year things just seem to be going wrong--he is having trouble finding a good costume, the costume parade at school is a disaster, and he has to take his little sister trick-or-treating.

All the children in the third grade except Zeke Meeks are playing with the newest fad, Puppet Pals finger puppets - will Zeke give in to the pressure and join them, even though he would much rather play basketball?

Zeke's class is having a talent show, and Brassy Glass, from America's Next Superstar, will be coming to the show as the judge--but Zeke cannot figure out what talent he actually has and, as usual, his sisters are no help at all.

As if coming up with a school project at the last minute is not enough trouble, Zeke also has to deal with his cousin Sam--who is just too perfect to be completely believable.

Zeke's third grade class is putting on a play and Zeke is unhappy and annoyed with what he sees as too small a role--until his mother teaches him the meaning of the saying "there are no small parts, only small actors."

When his little sister's friends cannot go with her to the Princess Sing-Along concert, Zeke feels he has to go to cheer her up on her birthday--but on Monday morning he has to give a report in class about what he did on the weekend.
