Lucy spent her summer with her relatives and is back and ready to go to school. She can't wait to see her best friend again. They work on magic together. But her friend has changed. She's joined a new group and isn't interesting in the games they used to play. Now Lucy is all alone again and hates it. She gets invited to be a sparkle girl but that's not what she wants to do. So she sits at lunch alone...
Paula Wiseman Books and Edelweiss let me read this book for review (thank you). It will be published February 20th.
I could feel Lucy's pain. When I went to parochial school, all the girls were from the city but one. We country ones became friends but the others already had their own friends. Then for a few years her parents couldn't pay the fees and I was alone. It's not fun.
Lucy is lucky, though. She finds two unusual friends who are much nicer than she imagined. One of them reads all the time and one of them is her neighbor girl who is older and weird. She never imagined weird could be nice.
Lucy's biggest problem was that she didn't like change. So when her mother is sick and then her parents make the announcement another baby was coming, she's not thrilled.
Lucy has lots of adventures this year and she's learning to almost accept change. Some of us still have that lesson to learn.
