I love this book. Such a sweet message. I ran an after school reading program and this was always a hit. I am sad it is out of print. I wanted to give copies to my own children who have their own families now. Unfortunately, the best copy available was a used library book, complete with stamped library card on the inside. I didn't feel like I could give a discarded library copy as a gift, so my grandkids will enjoy the copy I added to my own library.

Maggie is usually a cheerful little girl, but one day her dad comes home from work and says that he is being transferred. Maggie isn't sure what that means, but her whole family seems to be rather upset as they pack their things and say goodbye to their friends. Just before they pull away in their car from their house for the last time, Maggie's mother's friend hands her a present. Once the family arrives at their new house, everyone is sad and grumpy. Then Maggie gets an idea that pulls the whole family together, and helps them make friends with their new neighbors. The idea involves that gift that Maggie's mother had received from her friend. This is a great story, and it could well be based on true life. It's not at all scary, although it can be a little tense or serious at times. The book has about 1100 words.
