Rosie's summer of surfing is turned upside down when she has to teach her mean cousin, Flora, how to surf.

Rosie loves nothing more than spending her summers surfing while staying with her Aunt Hazel in Australia. But this summer, her cousin Flora is coming to visit, too, and Aunt Hazel wants Rosie to teach Flora how to surf. Trouble is, Flora has a history of being mean to Rosie--and it doesn't take long to figure out that Flora hasn't changed one bit. Can Rosie set aside her hard feelings and teach her cousin to ride the waves? Or will this shake-up to Rosie's summer of surfing lead to a wicked wipeout? Find out in this exciting, easy-to-read chapter book by Jake Maddox!

Jake Maddox
Who is Jake Maddox? Athlete, author, world-traveler – or all three? He has surfed in Hawaii, scuba-dived in Australia, and climbed the mountains of Peru and Alaska. His books range from the most popular team sports to outdoor activities to survival adventures and even to auto racing. His exploits have inspired numerous writers to walk in his footsteps – literally! Each of his stories is stamped with teamwork, fair play, and a strong sense of self-worth and discipline. Always a team-player, Maddox realizes it takes more than one man (or woman) to create a book good enough for a young reader. He hopes the lessons learned on the court, field, or arena and the champion sprinter pace of his books can motivate kids to become better athletes and lifelong readers.
