With a punch, a near disaster, and a trip to the principal's office, Lucky discovers that understanding may come in unexpected ways. As her twelfth birthday approaches, will she find clarity or more questions? Join Lucky on her journey of bravery, foolishness, and determination in this heartfelt conclusion.
