Along the way, you will meet her hilarious new friends, including an orphaned badger, a very careful boy who wears a hazmat suit, and the incredibly helpful town librarians. Together, this unlikely group is about to shake things up in the best way possible. Get ready for a hilarious and heartwarming middle grade fiction story full of absurd moments and wonderful surprises. As Leeva sets off a wild chain of events, you will discover alongside her what community, friendship, and discovering your true purpose are all about. Prepare to laugh out loud as one curious girl changes her entire town forever.
