Llega una nueva serie llena de humor y con un toque emotivo sobre el inicio del cole, las amistades y encontrar a tu gente.

¿Por qué el cuartito del material siempre huele tan mal? ¿Por qué mamá se comporta como si ocultara un secreto? ¿Por qué Violeta, la mejor amiga de Paula, ahora se pasa todo el día con la antipática de Riley?

Nadie dijo que empezar quinto grado iba a ser fácil y, por culpa de la ansiedad, a Paula le rondan un millón de preguntas. Contará todas sus historias en el diario que escribe para su perro Cosmo. Porque seamos honestos, hay mucho de qué preocuparse en quinto grado. ¡Pero también hay mucho de qué reírse!

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A humorous, heartfelt, highly illustrated new middle grade series about friendship, feelings, and finding your people, from #1 New York Times bestselling author Sara Shepard.

Why does the cubby room always smell like farts? Who etched the words "I Am Bug Man" inside my desk? Why is Mom suddenly acting like she has a secret?

Nobody said starting fifth grade would be easy, and Penny Lowry's anxiety means a million questions are always spinning through her thoughts. Luckily she's got a lot to look forward to, like her favorite after-school activity, Art Club, and seeing her best friend Violet again after spending the whole summer apart.

The thing is, Violet has been acting weird ever since she got back. She never wants to hang out anymore, says Art Club is for babies, and spends all her time with Riley, the meanest girl in school. Did Penny do something wrong? And if she did, can she undo it?

In this hilariously sweet introduction to a lovable kid still figuring out how to manage her anxiety, the author of the #1 bestselling Pretty Little Liars series gets to the heart of how to let go of the friends who aren’t right for you . . . and how to make room for the ones who are.

Sara Shepard se graduó en la Universidad de Nueva York y tiene un MFA de Brooklyn College. Es conocida a nivel mundial por ser la creadora de Pequeñas mentirosas, cuyas protagonistas están inspiradas en la época en la que asistió al colegio de Filadelfia.
