Bookroo's summary

Molly's life was perfect with just her and Dad, until he married Ms. Too, her once-favorite librarian. Ms. Too doesn't splash or spin, and her baking is a disaster. Molly struggles with the changes in her family, but as she and Ms. Too navigate their new relationship, they might find that change isn't as frightening as it seems. Can Molly open her heart to the unexpected magic of a new family dynamic, or will she hold onto the past? Discover the surprising ways families can grow and bond.

From the publisher

National Book Award finalist Laura Ruby and New York Times-bestselling illustrator Dung Ho bring us an unforgettable story of the many different ways in which families are made and the beautiful, unknowable, magical things that hold them together.For as long as Molly can remember, it’s always just been her and Dad. Dad, who likes to splash in the pool, who likes to spin at the park, who bakes the best cookies around.But that was before Dad married Ms. Too. Ms. Too doesn’t like to splash. She doesn’t like to spin. And she can’t bake anything.”But Molly, you used to love Ms. Too.”That was before, when she was Molly’s favorite librarian. Now everything has changed. But as Molly and Ms. Too are about to discover, maybe change isn’t always scary. Maybe change can be the best thing of all.
