Her brothers are as chaotic as ever, her mom is expecting another baby, and Samantha suddenly finds herself promoted to the unofficial babysitter of the household. As the pressure builds, so do the things she can’t seem to control—forgotten homework, drifting off in class, and sleepless nights spent worrying that she’s letting everyone down.
