Description: Sisters Josie and Sandra Campbell long to be ordinary American teenagers. Instead, thanks to their eccentric, intellectual parents, the family has lived in exotic places while their father William writes books and their mother Mary paints. Now, the siblings have convinced their parents to let them spend a year in the U.S. with their grandmother, so that Josie can experience a year of American high school and Sandra can attend college.
