Bookroo's summary

Sophie, feeling the sting of being the 'new girl,' is drawn to Darbie, a mysterious newcomer from Northern Ireland. As they prepare for the St. Patrick’s Day talent show, Sophie faces the challenge of bridging cultural divides. With tensions high and a drama performance looming, can Sophie and her friends learn to truly accept and love their neighbors? The stakes are high as they navigate friendship, cultural differences, and the true meaning of acceptance.

From the publisher

Sophie learns a lesson in loving her neighbors–ages 8-12 The Corn Flake Girls don’t know what to do for the St. Patrick’s Day talent show, since films aren’t allowed. When Darbie, a new girl from Northern Ireland, joins the class, Sophie is entranced. But Darbie snubs her. After a session with Dr. Peter, the CFGs–with Darbie–put on an Irish drama. Sophie learns that God wants you to love your neighbor as yourself.
