Katie is turning 12 and that means lots of changes! Dealing with a crush, friends moving away, baby-sitting. Just a lovely follow up to the first in the series. Perfect for fans of Kayla Miller and Raina Telgemeier!

I loved “Growing Pains” and was happy to see a sequel. Characters are just as great and the story rings so true. Trying to navigate “fitting in” with “being true to yourself” is painful in middle school and seeing the cracks in the world you’re growing up in is terribly confusing. This book offers honesty and reassurance for those who empathize with Katie.
