by Lisa Schroeder

Overview

Four best friends, one lucky bracelet, and an utterly charming new middle-grade series!

Mia has always loved living in southern California, where she takes every chance she gets to surf. But when she breaks her foot, Mia can't believe how bored she is! Bored enough that she's caught bird-watching -- by a famous young actress! Turns out, the other girl likes birds, too, and when she invites Mia to come with her to take photos, Mia jumps at the chance. Something to do AND the money she needs to pay for camp for next year! There's just one more problem: How will she keep her weird new job a secret from her BFFs?

Gr 3–6—Caitlin, Hannah, Mia, and Libby meet at summer camp and become BFFs. They buy a charm bracelet together, vowing to take turns with it, hoping that it will bring good luck to the girl wearing it. Caitlin struggles at a new school while her family deals with money issues. Budding photographer Mia faces down the gossip mill at her school when a famous actress notices her work. With a nod to Ann Brashares's "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" books (Delacorte), this series for the tween set features protagonists from diverse backgrounds.
