Overview

Rhiannon and Kit's easy friendship is no longer easy. Even worse, there's a new teenager in the park-Elizabeth. She's the polar opposite of Rhiannon: hip, confident, and a bit of a troublemaker. And Elizabeth has a secret that will put Rhiannon and Kit's friendship to the test.

Reviews

""A beautiful celebration of the inner lives of the communities around us, including those we might overlook. Empathic and insightful--I want to recommend this book to everyone."" --Jen Wang, author of Ash's Cabin ""Rhiannon is a beautifully drawn story that, like its titular protagonist, gradually reveals layers of tenderness and vulnerability as it develops. The story will stay with you long after the last page."" --Kathy MacLeod, author of Continental Drifter
