    From boy trouble to BFF drama, every choice you make could turn middle school into your best years ever . . . or a total disaster. YOU decide what happens next! Packed with 19 possible endings!

    Choose Your Own Adventure books—the 4th bestselling children’s series of all time—are back and as much fun as you remember. Kids and adults agree, these are the books that get 8- to 12-year-olds reading.

    YOU and your best friend Elise are baking cupcakes for the upcoming school dance when she drops some earth-shattering news: Elise has a crush on James (the very same James that you happen to have a crush on) and is planning to ask him out at the dance ... tonight! Your friendship—and your crush—is on the line. What do you do? Help your BFF ask out your one true love? Or do you snare your crush for yourself?

    A multiple-ending story of friendship and middle school romance, Snare Your Crush is an emotional rollercoaster ride that will keep readers turning the pages again and again. Humor and heart accompany tough and relatable choices for middle grade fans of The Babysitters Club and Raina Telgemeier.

Sergeant Reckless (Scholastic, 2022), as well as the picture books Books by Horseback (Little Bee, 2021) and Rose Spoke Out (Apples & Honey Press, 2023), along with many other books for young readers.
