From the highly acclaimed author of Caterpillar Summer and Honestly Elliott comes a heartfelt story about the sweetness and stings of tween friendship.
Meg has always found comfort in her best friend Beatrix's shadow. Self-assured Beatrix is the one who makes decisions, and the girls have been a pair since kindergarten. But starting middle school brings new changes in Beatrix, especially when Meg tries to step outside her role as sidekick.
When Meg becomes fast friends with the quirky new girl Hazel who also loves science, Beatrix is quick to stake her claim on Meg. Meg doesn't know why Beatrix is being so mean to Hazel--or why it's so difficult it is to stand up to her friend. And Meg starts to wonder: Is being Beatrix's best friend worth turning down the possibility of finding her own voice?
This pitch-perfect exploration of middle-school friendship dynamics brims with heart and hope, and will resonate with readers of all ages.
