At home, it means more chores and keeping an eye on Lolo as his health worsens. It's a year filled with more responsibility and independence, but also with opportunities to reinvent herself. Merci has always been fine with not being one of the popular kids like Avery Sanders, who will probably be the soccer captain and is always traveling to fun places and buying new clothes. But then Avery starts talking to Merci more, and not just as a teammate. Does this mean they're friends? Merci wants to play it cool, but with Edna always in her business, it's only a matter of time before Merci has to decide where her loyalty stands. Whether Merci is facing school drama or changing family dynamics, readers will empathize as she discovers who she can count on--and what can change in an instant--in Meg Medina's heartfelt conclusion to the trilogy that began with the Newbery Medal-winning novel.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMeg Medina\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of the Newbery Medal winner and \u003ci\u003eKirkus \u003c\/i\u003ePrize finalist\u003ci\u003e Merci Suárez Changes Gears \u003c\/i\u003eand its sequel, \u003ci\u003eMerci Suárez Can't Dance\u003c\/i\u003e, as well as several award-winning young adult novels and picture books.
