About this listen

 NATIONAL BESTSELLER • The first book in an acclaimed graphic novel series, adapted for audio, inspired by the author’s own childhood tells an amazing story of unlikely friends, sisters, and home.

“This candid, heartwarming look at a child grappling with major changes will resonate with fans of Raina Telgemeier and Svetlana Chmakova and anyone trying to find their place.”—School Library Journal, starred review

Jen did not want to leave the city. She did not want to move to a farm with her mom and her mom's new boyfriend, Walter. She did not want to leave her friends and her dad.

Most of all, Jen did not want to get new "sisters," Andy and Reese.

As if learning new chores on Peapod Farm wasn't hard enough, having to deal with perfect-at-everything Andy might be the last straw for Jen. Besides cleaning the chicken coop, trying to keep up with the customers at the local farmers' market, and missing her old life, Jen has to deal with her own insecurities about this new family . . . and where she fits in.

“Painfully realistic, this is a strong addition to the middle-grade shelf.” —Kirkus Reviews

“A quietly charming tale.” —Booklist

“Jen’s awkwardness, her struggles with math, and her grudging acceptance of her new life make her a relatable heroine that readers will root for.” —The Bulletin
