Rooms for Rent - Dew Worms for Sale

Libby Addley is spending the summer at her grandmother's boarding house in Wiarton, while her parents set up a new life for her in Ottawa. Less-than-desirable boarders, tired of roughing it in the bush, pay $2.00 a night to smoke, drink and sleep in a clean bed. Libby and her cousins Eddie and Leonard's main goal for the summer is to see how many ways they can scam people for money, to fund their pop and French fry craving. They spend their days smoking hand-rolled cigarettes made from old butts, swimming in the frigid waters of Colpoy's Bay and fishing. In another part of town lives Mary Rennert, the Yeti of Wiarton, who has a deep, abiding love for her chickens. They've overtaken her life and the once stately home where she lives with her sister Willie, who wears a football helmet, while riding through the town to collect beer bottles. Libby has some questions about the Rennert sisters and looks to the town's prostitute for answers, but only Grandma Addley, with her deep Catholic faith can give her the answers that she needs.
