Bookroo's summary
Abby's life is uprooted when her parents suddenly decide to move, leaving her beloved neighborhood and friends behind. Despite the allure of a new house with a pool and her own bathroom, Abby is resistant. She questions why her family no longer makes decisions together and why they must move so close to Brianna. As Abby grapples with these changes, she must navigate the challenges of adapting to a new environment while holding onto what she cherishes most. Will Abby find a way to embrace the future, or will the past keep her anchored?
From the publisher
The unthinkable is about to happen–Abby’s family is moving!
Abby has lived in the same house for as long as she can remember. But now her parents have decided that they need to move…and their house is on the market before the kids have even digested the news! Abby feels safe and secure in her old neighborhood, where all her friends are nearby. She doesn’t care that she’ll soon have her own bathroom and a pool in her backyard. She doesn’t even care that she’ll get to stay in the same school. Abby doesn’t want to move! Whatever happened to the Hayeses making decisions together? And why do they have to move so close to Brianna?
