With sensitivity and precision, Patron delves into the complexities surrounding friendship. Lucky (The Higher Power of Lucky) is thrilled to have a "normal" friend--a girl named Paloma. But, as in the first book, Lucky's show-off tendencies lead to trouble. Return readers will be contented to again pass some time in Hard Pan, while others will feel welcomed by its close-knit warmth.
