Plot

Vada Sultenfuss is an 11-year-old girl living in Madison, Pennsylvania in the summer of 1972. Her father, Harry Sultenfuss, operates the town's funeral parlor, which is also their home. Her upbringing leads her to suffer from hypochondria and develop an obsession with death, which her father fails to understand. Also living with them is "Gramoo", Vada's paternal grandmother, whose recent mind-wandering accentuates Vada's worries. Her uncle Phil lives nearby and frequently helps them.
