Sammi, thirteen, is mortified when her eleven-year-old sister skips two grades and joins her in eighth grade. Worse still, Jorgianna is immediately embraced by the popular clique Sammi has been longing to join. While getting to know the queen bee, the sisters see that their friendship with each other, though sometimes frustrating, is more important. A breezy story of a nuanced sisterly bond.
