Fourth-grader Ophie has just moved from California to Oregon. She's stuck with two plainspoken outsiders as friends until the popular girls in class decide that she's socially acceptable after all. She ditches the outsiders but comes to her senses before it's too late. Thanks to O'Dell's sure and light touch, readers will hope to read more about Ophie in the future.
