Luchy Zapata is starting middle school, and she\u2019s muy excited. She and her two best friends, Cami and Mateo, will finally be at the same school. Luchy and Mateo will be in art class together, and she and Cami can try out for the same soccer team! As long as they\u2019re all together, Luchy can handle anything.
But Cami has been acting weird ever since she got back from visiting family in Colombia. She\u2019s making new, \u201ccool\u201d friends who just seem mean. And suddenly, everything about Luchy and Mateo is too immature for her.
Luchy is determined to help Cami remember how special their friendship is. They\u2019ve been BFFs their whole lives, and that can\u2019t just disappear in a poof of glitter! But\u2026what if Cami doesn\u2019t even want to be friends anymore?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
