A parent might reach for this book when their pre-teen is feeling awkward, struggling to fit in, or navigating the complexities of middle school friendships. Written as the diary of 12-year-old Ally, the book chronicles her daily anxieties as her best friend, Sandie, gets pulled into the popular crowd.

It humorously and gently explores themes of self-confidence, loyalty, and belonging. For ages 9 to 13, this book is a comforting and funny mirror for any child feeling a little lost in the social shuffle, normalizing their emotions and showing them they are not alone.
