Tyler June is a happy rich kid living in the suburbs. He thinks his life is going to be the same as always. It's summer and he'll spend it babysitting for his three younger sisters and younger brother. But he's in for a nasty surprise: His mom is starting a home school summer group.
Soon, Tyler's house is invaded by a bunch of weird kids he's never met: A scary goth kid named Todd, a sunny girl named Alexis, a snobby kid named Mason, a girl who constantly carries her camera around with her named Harmony, two best friends named Jenny and Kelly, a bratty little girl named Carla who gives everybody a run for their money, and a mental, strong-willed guy named Vrack who is seriously crazy.
Forced to spend two weeks together in the June's large house, summer is turned into a bizarre nightmare with chaos looming around every corner and surprises at every staircase. Tied together with laughs and packaged by sheer insanity of the teenage home schooled crowd, BEWF is supposed to capture the image of what it's really like to have true frienemies.
Age recommendation: Ages 7 and up.

Billionaire Academy
A school for children with VERY rich parents.
Nikolikuylika (known to her friends as Nikki) Roberts is a fairly normal girl with a very abnormal name. Except for the fact that her father is one of the richest men in the country. She and her brother, Shaddokabree, (known as Bree) are relaxing over the summer break, living it up, partying, and without a care in the world.
Until their mother showed up.
Their mother (who'd been absent for five years on a business trip) doesn't approve of Nikki and Bree's tutor, MacKenzie Welsh, and so they are enrolled in the most enhancing, most superior, most expensive school in America, Torwell Academy, known to everybody who didn't attend as "Billionaire Academy."
Nikki and Bree soon find friends, some of which include Jasmine Jades, a punk-looking girl who is actually quite nice, Jason and Grey Viernitraz, two quiet, older boys who're friends of Bree's, Alex and Owen Aisles, who are wilder than expected, and Nora Capora, who is quiet, sullen, but has a wonderful smile.
Soon, Jasmine, Jason, Grey, Alex, Owen, and Nora are over the house almost as often as Nikki and Bree themselves! What does their mother think of this school now that it's preppy, wild students are invading her home, refridgerator, and time?

Ricky's Story
Ricky Kingston (who is REAL, as a matter of fact) wants a better life. Better brothers, better friends, better looks, better everything. He's nobody, too short, and unimportant. His friend Joey-Joe is (his only friend) fifteen years old and a grade below him. His older brother Corey (known by everyone as Treasure) is perfect in every way. He's got too many brothers and sisters, not enough friends, and his only consonance is his computer, where he spends most of his time.
But Ricky stumbles upon his chance: instant popularity, the pretty new girl, and something that makes him cooler than his older brother. What's the big thing?
Ricky throws a CRAZY party, invites everyone in his grade via Facebook, and plans it with the help of Joey-Joe, Cassidy, a family friend who's gotten in her share of trouble, and even Joe's older sister, Tracy, the party expert.
But when Ricky is as famous as birthday cake, how can he keep his brother and FATHER from knowing about the party, as well as everything that comes with it?
Maybe being popular is harder then it looks...maybe his brother's life isn't perfect...maybe his twin sister Rita was right...secrets are harder to keep then friends.
