Heaven Is Paved with Oreos

By Catherine Gilbert Murdock

Book Overview

Fourteen-year-old Sarah Zorn intends to spend the summer with her "boyfriend" Curtis, waiting for a dead calf to decompose in time for the science fair. Her plans are upended when her fake-boyfriend strategy goes awry just as her hippie Grandma Z invites her on a last-minute Roman holiday. As Sarah explores Italy's ancient wonders, she can't stop "boy-liking" Curtis . . . or puzzling over her grandmother's odd behavior. Sarah must learn to navigate the murky waters of first love, friendship, and family with heart and good humor.
