Bookroo's summary

Peachy dreams of being a star reporter, but the school newspaper is shut down. With her energetic friend Keen, she hatches a plan to launch a digital version. As they face disinterested students, busy teachers, and a friendship-threatening fight, can they save Purrfect 9 Magazine and their bond? Discover if determination and creativity can overcome these challenges.

From the publisher

It’s the first week of school, and Peachy couldn’t be happier. This year, she can finally join the school newspaper! She’s always pictured herself as a star reporter, writing articles that make a difference. But when Peachy goes to sign up–and drags her hyper best friend, Keen, along with her — they learn that the paper has shut down for good. No one’s reading the news anymore! Peachy is crushed. Just then, Keen gets a text alert, and Peachy’s wheels start turning. What if the newspaper were published to student’s tablets! Peachy is determined, and Keen is hungry –okay, kind of determined but mostly hungry–and they set off to make it happen. But most of the students they try to recruit are more interested in other clubs, and all of the teachers are too busy to be their advisor. Plus, Peachy & Keen get in a huge fight. Will Purrfect 9 Magazine be doomed before it even begins–along with their friendship?
