ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

From New York Times bestselling author, Veronica Chambers, comes the first in a young middle grade series about larger-than-life Flora Violeta LeFevre, who uses humor and a little mischief to navigate her best friend moving away, her sister’s overbearing and all-consuming quince preparations, and a surprising new friendship.

Given the choice of a friend who's honest, loyal, or the Most Fun Ever, Flora Violeta LeFevre and her steadfast sidekick, Clara Bayano, would obviously pick option three. So, when the sad news breaks that Clara's moving, the girls roll up their sleeves and get to business: finding Flora an exciting new BFF to continue the adventures in Clara's stead. The girls come up with a checklist of all the traits that Flora's next buddy has to have, including the ability to code, speak another language, and make jaws drop at the skate park. But when newcomer Zaidee Khal surpasses the girls' "BFF-ometer" in unexpected ways, Flora realizes that replacing one friend with another isn't quite as simple as it seems.
