Millie Mildew never asked for this life. Not the swamp she lived in, not her gross brothers, and especially not her name.

 

Everything she and her family touched seemed to sour. But Millie has other plans when a new neighbor girl moves in and she is desperate to befriend her. 

 

Millie's idea of baking them a homemade apple pie goes awry, and she must figure out a new way to finally make a friend, or be stuck chucking rotten apples at her brothers for the rest of her life.
