Have you ever wondered what it would be like to go on an archaeological dig? Well, Jess is a 10-year-old girl who gets the experience of a lifetime when her parents take her to Belize with them for an archaeological dig. This is her first time going without her siblings; they stay home with their grandma as they have too much going on at school to leave for several months. During the trip, Jess is “homeschooled”.
