The Applewhites at Wit's End by Stephanie S. Tolan.
The world has ended. At least, that is how Randall Applewhite announces the family's recent disaster. When their financial planner absconds with their money, the artistic Applewhite family and their lone non-family student, Jake Semple, are faced with losing Wit's End, the motel-turned-artist's-colony that they so love.
But Randall is not the Head of the Family for nothing. His plan to turn Wit's End into a camp for creative children will save them all. He's sure of it.
When Randall refuses to admit the daughter of a local arts patron to the camp, letters threatening to close the camp appear surreptitiously. Compound this with a small group of headstrong kid campers and the Applewhite family's own oddities and this just might be the longest summer in the lives of Edie Applewhite, the non-artistic organized one, and Jake Semple, whose former life as a juvenile delinquent stands him in good stead. You know that these two get stuck with most of the problems. And maybe they can admit they like each other - a little?
Via the Applewhites! May they return with more crazy, artful, outside-the-box adventures. And may they put on a show at the end of every book!
