Like Magic by Elaine Vickers

I found this to be such a darling read! Three 10 year old girls are ending their summer with huge changes. Grace, who is terribly shy, is dealing with her best friend moving away and starting at a new school. Jada, who still hopes to find her mom, has moved to Utah with her dad and left everything that she knows behind. Malia knows that life will change once her new sister is born and trying to figure out where she belongs in her family. All girls feel horribly alone and friendless.

With the help of a wise librarian and a treasure book, each of the girls take turns, without knowing the other, finding treasures and leaving treasures in the book and returning it to the library only for the next person to find the treasure. Each treasure is special and heartfelt. And seems to found when most needed. Before they know it, these girls don't feel so alone as they did before.

This is such a sweet story of friendship, love, and kindness.
