Beautifully written tale of the power of friendship. Taking baton lessons was part of ten-year-old Raymie's plan to get her father's attention. But what happens to Raymie because of those baton lessons, is so much better! She gains two forever friends and learns what true friendship is all about. For readers who liked Because of Winn-Dixie, Turtle in Paradise, and Moon Over Manifest.

Louisiana Elefante is one of my favorite characters of all time!
