Norah is the good kid. Good at pleasing her parents and being a good sister. Good at school. Good at, well, almost everything.
So when Mom’s work brings her to a new town leaving Norah and Dad behind, no one thinks twice. After all, Norah’s a mature sixth grader who can take care of herself…right? But things spiral out of control after a botched home dye job goes wrong and being the good kid quickly gets a little…hairy.
Before long, one small tangle becomes a knot of epic proportions, and Norah soon realizes that the only way to untangle the mess she’s made is to find her voice and ask for help.
Perfect for fans of Just Pretend and Crunch, Knots is sure to have readers laughing (and cringing) along with Norah’s antics.
...because Colleen is one of my very favorite people, so I don't know how much credibility I have when I say Knots rules and everyone should read it. Nearly made me cry on the light rail! A sensitive story about anxiety and complicated family dynamics told with humor and grace.
