When Sofia finds Maddi's refrigerator nearly empty because Maddi's mother doesn't have enough money to buy food, Sofia promises to keep it a secret. But eventually Sofia tells her own mother, and together they gather some groceries for Maddi's family. Humorous art and a story line focusing on the girls' friendship keep the tone light. Notes on combating hunger are included.
