In Third Grade in Bloomington, MN

Mimi, the new kid, and a reluctant third grader for the last two days of Boulder Elementary School is keeping secrets. When she learns the animals around her are in trouble, she accidentally reveals that she can communicate with them in a way no one else can. But, everyone is watching her because they all want to be friends with "The New Kid." How will she ever make friends if she has to hide who she really is? On her first day she learns her principal is not her "pal," the class bully is his daughter, and then there is the matter of their bulldog. In just 2 days, can she save her new school and make real friends to spend her summer with?
