Chapter 1

Summer Vacation

––––––––

Hey there, it’s me again . . . PB&J!

Here in Goodsprings, it’s officially summer break, that time of the year when you get to relax at the beach in a big pink inflatable ducky and eat ice cream all day long.

That is, unless you’re Jimmy, who only eats my PB&J sandwiches. Making them is my superpower after all!

One time, I tried to hand him a delicious chocolate ice-cream cone with sprinkles, but he just shook his head and said, I only eat your superhero food.

He’s a great friend.

Oh, and here’s some free advice: the great thing about eating ice cream at the beach is, it doesn’t matter if it drips on your toes or something, because it’s the beach. If you get sticky, the sharks will come and clean you off!

(Okay, just kidding.)

Superhero Tip #1: Don’t swim with sharks. Especially the really big ones. 

But this year, my summer plans went all wrong.

It all started with my friend Sophia Little’s championship soccer game.

This was the final match, the big showdown between the Goodsprings Goblins (our team . . . root for us) and the Pepperfield Penguins (not our team . . . don’t root for them).

Jimmy and I were watching the game on the bleachers, and we were cheering like crazy! We even wrote a little cheer. It went something like this:

Go, Goblins, go!

Give the crowd a show!

No, Goblins, no!

Don’t let them score a goal!

As you can see, we’re pretty amazing songwriters.

Of course, the Penguins’ coach, Ms. Thompson, didn’t think so. She kept frowning at us from across the field.

Ah, let her sulk! I said to Jimmy. She’s just sour because we have Sophia on our side!

Yeah, Sophia’s gonna crush ‘em! Jimmy roared.

Which led us to our next cheer:

Rah, rah, sis-boom-bah!

Who’s the best one with the ball?

Sophia, Sophia, SOOOOPHIA!

Jimmy and I sang this cheer six times and then fell over, totally out of breath.

So, when do you leave for the beach? asked Jimmy, still panting like a shaggy dog.

Tomorrow morning! I said happily. It’s going to be really great. St. Simon’s Island even has wild horses that run along the beach!

Wow! Jimmy said excitedly. St. Simon’s Island. That’s so cool. If only it wasn’t so far away.

I turned to Jimmy. What do you mean? How far away is it?

Jimmy shrugged. Oh . . . it’s like a twenty-four-hour drive from here.

A TWENTY-FOUR-HOUR DRIVE?! I shouted, falling off the bleachers and landing on my back. Isn’t that like a whole day or something?

Yes, well, twenty-four hours is exactly one complete day, Jimmy said, happy as usual that he could help me with my math.

Just as I was about to start sobbing into the grass, the crowd suddenly lost it with applause.

Jimmy smiled and waved behind him.

See? he said. The crowd loves it when I answer math questions correctly!

Getting to my feet, I pointed toward the field and shouted, Jimmy, no! They’re not cheering for you. It’s Sophia!

Right at that moment, Sophia had the ball and was headed straight for the Penguins’ goal. Like always, she had that really scary fireball look in her eyes that made people want to suck their thumbs and call for their mommies.

(Even I was scared, and I was sitting really far away from her.)

The Penguins’ goalie must have been terrified too, because all of a sudden she started shaking in panic and grunting UGHAHA! like a strange zebra.

Hold it together, Samantha! screamed Coach Thompson. Or there’s no ice cream for you after the game!

Even from here, I could see how
