A funny, heartfelt chapter book about mistakes, friendship, family, and growing up.
Andie McGee does not mean to get into trouble.
Usually.
But trouble has a way of finding her anyway - in the form of a bedroom fire, a scraped knee, a missing shoe, a best-friend fight, a classroom embarrassment, and one very serious crush on Kelvin Walker.
After a fire changes everything at home, Andie has to adjust to a new neighborhood, a new school, and new friendships that are not always easy to understand. Along the way, she learns that growing up can feel confusing, unfair, funny, embarrassing, and brave - sometimes all in the same day.
The Unfortunate Adventures of Andie McGee is a middle-grade chapter book for young readers who enjoy realistic stories about family, friendship, school, neighborhood life, and the small moments that can feel huge when you are growing up.
