School starts in a week so Aubrey and her grandmother go "back to school" shopping. Aubrey is not excited for school because she will not know anybody other than Bridget. Her and Bridget spend the last few days of summer playing outside. The first day of school is actually on Aubrey's little sister's birthday which makes it even worst. After the day is over Aubrey actually likes her new school.
Hope that helps
