Review by Horn Book Review

In this fourth book, Lydia and Julie take a cross-country road trip with Julie's two dads. Told through the girls' hand-written, illustrated diary entries, the story is lively and funny (and includes geographical details). Serious issues--Lydia's feelings about her parents' divorce and her father's remarriage; the fact that Julie's grandparents dont accept their son's partner or his homosexuality--are also included.
