That's because her mom uses the Ruby Slippers surveillance app to check where she is, who she texts, and even what she eats for lunch. Averil wonders how she's ever going to grow up if she's not allowed to learn from mistakes. When she learns that Ruby Slippers is about to become even more invasive, she teams up with Max, a new kid at school dealing with overbearing parents of his own. Together they figure out an almost foolproof way to ditch their parents and run away to the college campus that's home to the quirky Ruby Slippers creator. It's an extreme challenge just getting to meet with him--but the two kids cleverly figure out a series of puzzles and get their meeting. What they find gives them pause--and gets them thinking about the value of honesty in a new light. After all, isn't trust at the heart of their parents' need to know?\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAmy Noelle Parks (amynoelleparks.com) also wrote the middle grade novel \u003ci\u003eSummer of Brave\u003c\/i\u003e, as well as the young adult novels \u003ci\u003eLia and Beckett's Abracadabra\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Quantum Weirdness of the Almost-Kiss\u003c\/i\u003e.
