About this listen

Whispers spread fast. And in middle school… they can change everything.

Sixth grade was supposed to be a fresh start for Emma, full of new classes, new friends, and maybe even a little confidence.

But on day three, one rumor turns her world upside down—and she’s not even sure how it started. As whispers swirl through the halls of Maplewood Middle School, Emma finds herself stuck between the girl she’s always been and the one everyone suddenly expects her to be.

Trying to impress the popular crowd means drifting from her best friend. Staying quiet means someone else keeps getting hurt. And the more Emma tries to fix it, the worse it seems to get.

In a school where friendships shift as fast as the gossip, Emma has to decide: Will she speak up—or stay silent?

A heartfelt middle-grade novel about friendship, identity, and the power of your voice, Rumor Has It is perfect for fans of Because of Mr. Terupt, The First Rule of Climate Club, and Blubber.
