(4) YA Eva and Henry (Henriette) are at the top of their games. For Henry, that's tennis; for Eva, it's ballet. They're off to elite summer camps--a dream come true. But when Eva has a health crisis, Henry must decide whether to support her friend or pursue her own career. Although the novel relies on stereotypes--particularly the pushy, clueless parents--the friendship plot rings true.
