Synopsis:

Getting ready to start middle school? Well, you''ll need to know what to expect. Get to know every person you''ll meet and how they can help (and who to stay away from!).

"Mahoney authentically captures the universal indignities of middle school, the challenges of self-discovery, and the joy of making true friends." --Publishers Weekly, Starred Review

Dear Lou,
You''ve been asking and asking about what middle school is like, but I just thought they were annoying-younger-sister questions. Even though I am almost done with my first year, I can still remember when I thought middle school was a mystery, so I''ll try to give you a leg up. I know middle school is a lot to figure out. But since I still haven''t worked it all out yet, I''m happy to help as much as I can. That''s what big sisters are for.
Love, Gus
