Twelve-year-old Taylor is discombobulated by her family's move to a farm. A friend devises TEFF (Taylor Escapes From Farm), a plan in which Taylor acts out to convince her parents that moving was a mistake. Meanwhile, readers learn interesting, authentic details about everything from spinning wool to birthing lambs. Plucky Taylor, though lightly sarcastic, never comes off as unlikable or bratty.
