Sinossi

"[A] deftly layered mystery about family, friendship, and the struggle to speak up." - Laurie Halse Anderson, bestselling author of Speak and Shout 
 
From acclaimed author Kate Messner comes the powerful story of a young girl with the courage to make her voice heard, set against the backdrop of a summertime mystery. 
 
When Mia moves to Vermont the summer after seventh grade, she's recovering from the broken arm she got falling off a balance beam. And packed away in the moving boxes under her clothes and gymnastics trophies is a secret she'd rather forget. 
                 
Mia's change in scenery brings day camp, new friends, and time with her beloved grandmother. But Gram is convinced someone is trying to destroy her cricket farm. Is it sabotage or is Gram's thinking impaired from the stroke she suffered months ago? Mia and her friends set out to investigate, but can they uncover the truth in time to save Gram's farm? And will that discovery empower Mia to confront the secret she's been hiding--and find the courage she never knew she had?  
  
In a compelling story rich with friendship, science, and summer fun, a girl finds her voice while navigating the joys and challenges of growing up.

    A Texas armadillo tries to fit in on the bayou—and learns a few Cajun words—in the beloved series that provides “plenty of fun” (Publishers Weekly). Texas native Andrew Armadillo is unfamiliar with Cajun phrases, making him an outsider on the bayou. Plus, his loud voice and large size frighten the local creatures! However, when one of Clovis Crawfish’s friends becomes stuck in a tall thorn bush, Andrew’s height just might come in handy . . . Illustrator Scott R. Blazek joins Mary Alice Fontenot yet again to present this fun story about friendship and Cajun culture. With the inclusion of sheet music for the Cajun song “Fais Pas des Bêtises,” Cajun phrases, and definitions and pronunciations of Cajun words, this book is a delight for anyone who’s ever felt like the new kid in town.  Praise for the series   “In Louisiana’s bayou country, Clovis Crawfish is a favorite folk hero of children who have met him in Fontenot’s lively tales. . . . The stories have suspense, lessons in nature lore, French words, and plenty of fun.” —Publishers Weekly   “Stories that are simply fun to read.” —Houston Post
