I loved this delightful middle grade book. Maxine is a great character, and so is Hollie. Some of the things Maxine experienced broke my heart, but I know that is the reality for many kids. I felt like the 5th grade perspective was pretty accurate as well. This is a lovely book, and I would highly recommend it to others.
