Reach for this book when your pre-teen or young teenager is starting to crave more independence and is curious about the world beyond their own front door. It is the perfect choice for a child who feels 'stuck' at home or is nervous about making new friends over a long summer break. The story follows Kendra and a visiting family friend named Frank as they navigate a massive, parent-designed scavenger hunt across New York City. While the scavenger hunt provides a fast-paced and humorous framework, the heart of the book is the evolving relationship between the two protagonists. As they explore museums and landmarks, they also explore the complexities of first romance, teamwork, and family dynamics. Paula Danziger captures the authentic voice of early adolescence, making this an excellent tool for normalizing the awkward but exciting transition into more autonomous social lives. It celebrates curiosity and the joy of discovery without being overly heavy.
