Bookroo's summary
Emma's ferret is missing, and with chaos at home, she must prove her responsibility to join the soccer team. Enter Annie, the coolest nanny ever, who might just be Emma's ally. But can Emma convince her parents to keep Annie, or will she face another family upheaval? As Emma navigates these challenges, she learns that even the best make mistakes. Will she find Marmaduke and secure her spot on the team, or will her dreams slip away amidst the family chaos?
From the publisher
Marmaduke is missing! Once again, Emma has forgotten to put her ferret back in his cage. And with four brothers and sisters and a poodle who chases Marmaduke around the house, Emma finds herself in the middle of this and other family dilemmas. If only she can prove to her parents that she’s responsible, then maybe they’ll let her join the traveling soccer team. When Annie, the new nanny, arrives, Emma feels she’s found someone who’s on her side. Annie’s the coolest nanny ever, but will Mom and Daddy let her stay? Or will they fire her, as they have so many of the other nannies?
