Perfect for you if...

You're a child navigating a big life change like moving or starting a new school and need a character who gets how messy that feels.
You enjoy books about friendship and belonging that don't shy away from real disappointment.
You like stories where kids solve their own problems instead of waiting for adults to fix everything.

Maybe not for you if...

You're looking for a quick, lighthearted story with zero conflict or stakes.
You prefer books where everything works out perfectly by the end with no loose threads.
You want something aimed at younger readers (under age 7) since this deals with school and social complexity.

About this book

Mallory McDonald is turning nine and wants to move past a difficult year marked by moving, starting a new school, making new friends, and sibling rivalry. To make her birthday special, she decides to celebrate an entire "birth month" instead of just one day. However, her plans begin to go wrong, and Mallory worries that being nine might prove just as challenging as being eight.
