Review
Great coming of age book. Sara is going to reinvent herself with the help of two best friends before she starts middle school. Only, her two moms have a different plan. They are taking a month-long family trip by train. Sara's a bit skunky because she really wanted to stay home. Her little sister Ladybug is best friends with Frog Fletcher from "The Misadventures of the Family Fletcher" and "The Fletcher Family Takes Rock Island." Many postcards and Emails are sent back East. One Mom won the trip to the West coast because she is a writer, as did another family with a teen boy, his dad, and his two great aunts. The great aunts are best friends and teach Sara about living and dying. "She and Miss Ruby are probably worse than me and Em and Saanvi for giggling and arguing and goofing off. Can't imagine if they'd been in middle school together....I'm betting that they wouldn't be allowed to have the same lunch period, that"s all I'm saying."
Overall Book Score: very good
