Add a CommentVery sweet. I like that both girls are able to find a friendship with each other and that they have to deal with hard things, like racism, together. I love the moms becoming friends too.
Delightful read. Authors got into the everyday feelings of new middle schoolers. So many issues brought up, friendship, cultural issues and family. Satisfying ending.
