Synopsis

Ava has well and truly had it. Her parents have moved her away from her old house and her best friend, Anna, to a completely new place. And now the holiday is over and it is time to start at her new school. She does not want to go.

But then she is seated next to Esther, and suddenly things start to look a whole lot better – and maybe Esther needs a new friend just as much as Ava...

Mette Telefoni has written a very special series in a wonderful language, full of wisdom and warmth and with very clearly drawn characters.
