Clementine and the Family Meeting by Sara Pennypacker
4.0
I just love that the book starts out with Clementine telling Margaret that she's "having a nervous breakdown!" as she huffs into a seat on the bus. She's a riot.
Her feelings about being left behind by Margaret as she boards the Makeup Plane are particularly profound - I think it's a feeling a lot of us had about one of our friends for any particular reason (getting more interested in boys while you still like toys, going away to a really good school while you're at community college, getting a fantastic job in their field while you're struggling to get interviews... it's really not relegated to just Clementine's age).
