Tacoma Jones loves working at her familyβs roadside diner, the Brake Fast, pouring coffee and serving eggs and muffins to truckers all day long. But tonight, she is finally going to break out her collection of cookbooks and prepare the best dinner the state of Washington has ever seen.
But her excitement is dampened when she learns that today is one of Dadβs bad days, when his depression makes it hard for him to get out of bed.
Tacoma knows she canβt fix her dadβs depression. But what she can do is steal back his prized photograph of his second-best day from her nemesis, the nasty Crocodile Kyleβwhile also planning a dinner that is sure to brighten up his bad day.
She just might need an accomplice or two to pull off the heist. . . .Β
