Bookroo's summary

Alfie Jakes is excited yet anxious as she starts second grade. Her summer was unexpectedly delightful, thanks to her new neighbor, Hanni, and a kitten. But with her best friend Lulu returning, Alfie fears her two friends might not get along. Her secret wish is for them to become a trio, but what if the outcome isn't what she imagined? As friendships are tested, Alfie must navigate the complexities of her heart's desires and the surprises that come with them. Will her wish bring harmony or unexpected twists?
