- Synopsis
- Twelve-year-old Flor faces a bittersweet summer with a pageant, a frenemy, and a hive full of honey in this &“sweet and satisfying read about friendship, sisterhood, and change&” (Kirkus Reviews).It&’s the summer before eighth grade and Flor is stuck at home and working at her family&’s mattress store, while her best friend goes off to band camp (probably to make new friends). It becomes even worse when she&’s asked to compete in the local honey pageant. This means Flor has to spend the summer practicing her talent (recorder) and volunteering (helping a recluse bee-keeper) with Candice, her former friend who&’s still bitter about losing the pageant crown to Flor when they were in second grade. And she can&’t say no.Then there&’s the possibility that Flor and her family are leaving to move in with her mom&’s family in New Jersey. And with how much her mom and dad have been fighting lately, is it possible that her dad may not join them? Flor can&’t let that happen. She has a lot of work to do.
