Language: G, Mature Content: G, Violence: G.
When her family moves into a
new place, Quinny is worried about making new friends. When she meets the
neighbor, Hopper, they don’t hit it off at first, but decide to give each other
a second chance. When they get together, hijinks ensues and polar opposites
seem to work together. Each more hair-brained the last, including catching
Freya the stray chicken, learning to juggle, and climbing trees. As school
starts, however, the two struggle to keep their friendship going amidst bullies
and third grade rules that say the two aren’t supposed to be friends. Will
their friendship survive?
A funny, light-hearted novel
for boy and girl fans of Junie B. Jones, Judy Moody, My Weird School, and other
humorous books. The characters are well-developed for an early chapter book and
are likable. Readers who enjoy friendship stories, school fiction, and realistic
adventure will enjoy reading this book.
