Remember Dippy by Shirley Reva Vernick

The title is very deceiving coupled with the picture on the cover. Remember Dippy is a boy with autism.  Remember's cousin, Johnny, is going to be his "babysitter" for the summer while his Aunt Colette is working at the 7Eleven and Johnny's mother is in New York at an interior design job. Remember has two ferrets and many quirky attributes, but the boys are fast friends and encounter many adventures during their summer.  From bullies, to pizza shop owner's love interests to drowning, Johnny and Remember tackle some tough obstacles.
