A girl named Lemonade goes to live with her grandfather after her mother's death, and meets a Big-Foot obsessed boy, Tobin. Tobin inducts Lem into his Big Foot Detective Agency and as they search for the illusive creature, they work through the bigger issues in their own lives.
This was a pretty typical "orphaned girl in a new home" book with a little cryptozoological twist. All through the book the reader is never sure if Big Foot is real in this world or if the kids are just chasing wild stories. Lemonade and Tobin are both quirky and endearing and their slowly developing friendship is fun to watch. It was a cute book and I will likely recommend it to a few of the humorous realistic (kind of) fiction readers I know who come into the library. (2017, 308 p.)
