For graduates of Junie B. Jones, the genuinely compassionate (Kirkus Reviews) third novel in the Meena Zee series follows lovable Meena as she tries to keep her best friend, Sofa, from moving away.
Everything is going Meenas way. Her seizures are under control, shes started the Finders Keepers Club, and shes trying hard to be a better friend. So when Sofas cat, Oriol, goes missing, Meena is the first to help her look.
But when Meena learns Sofas family might be moving far away, everything starts to fall apart. Worst of all, Sofa seems more worried about finding her cat than leaving Meena behind!
With a little help from her trash collection, Meena sets out to locate Oriol and keep Sofa close. But what if being a good friend means losing what she loves most
At Meenas age, Karla Manternach was a smudgy kid in tube socks. She once stopped an entire parade by running in front of a fire truck for candy. Karla liked every subject in school but always loved writing best of all. Today, she is a freelance writer who creates books for young readers. Karla lives with her family in small-town Wisconsin. Her favorite color is orange.
