Kevin Cornell.
With a baby on the way, Lulu's parents send her to Camp Sisterhood to be a SIT (sister in training). Lulu is disrespected and outsmarted by her assigned "sibling"; she gets a new assignment, who adores her in spite of her attitude. Humorous situations and exaggerated characterizations, enlivened by expressive spot art, bring Camp Sisterhood to life while a brazenly intrusive narrator keeps everyone in check.
