Description
Everything in twelve-year-old Annie's life begins changing when her mother becomes pregnant. Her grandfather begins to falter and her best friend becomes distant.
Quick Summary
The Story of the Charlotte Bobcats captures how life throws curveballs at twelve-year-old Annie when everything she thought was stable starts shifting. Readers will connect with Annie's relatable struggles as she navigates a grumpy grandfather, a best friend who's suddenly keeping secrets, and a baby on The Way to Treasure Island that nobody seems prepared for. If your kid loves emotionally sharp books like "Bridge to Terabithia" or "Fish in a Tree," they'll find that same heart and humor here. This 5.0 AR level, 13,000-word gem is perfect for kids in grades 4 through 6.
