This is a really good book. It's about a family who's mean landlord is throwing them out, right around the holidays. The kids try to convince the landlord to let them stay, but their plans go horribly wrong. There are a few surprises and a deeper plot then I thought when I picked it up, but it's a really good book to read. I suggest you read it in a really comfortable spot, like a hammock.
