Reach for this book when your child is starting to notice the weight of adult problems, like family finances, and wants to feel empowered rather than helpless. It is an ideal bridge for the 'tween' years, speaking to those who love fashion and beauty but also care deeply about the environment and community responsibility. Lucy is a resourceful seventh-grader who discovers her family's long-standing drugstore is in danger of closing. Rather than sitting on the sidelines, she uses her talent for makeup and her vision for a 'green' business model to pitch a makeover for the shop. The story explores themes of resilience, creative problem-solving, and the evolving relationship between three generations of women. It is a secular, empowering read that validates a young person's ability to drive change while navigating the social shifts of middle school.
