From the Desk of Zoe Washington meets Ways to Make Sunshine in this
"noteworthy" (Kirkus Reviews, starred review) middle grade novel
about a determined young girl who must rely on her ingenuity and
scientific know-how to save her beloved cat. Twelve-year-old Mira's
summer is looking pretty bleak. Her best friend Thomas just moved a
billion and one miles away from Florida to Washington, DC. Her dad
is job searching and he's been super down lately. Her phone screen
cracked after a home science experiment gone wrong. And of all
people who could have moved into Thomas's old house down the
street, Mira gets stuck with Tamika Smith, her know-it-all nemesis
who's kept Mira in second place at the school science fair four
years running. Mira's beloved cat, Sir Fig Newton, has been the
most stable thing in her life lately, but now he seems off, too.
With her phone gone and no internet over the weekend at her strict
Gran's house, Mira must research Fig's symptoms the old-fashioned
way: at the library. She determines that he has "the silent cat
killer" diabetes. A visit to the vet confirms her diagnosis, but
that one appointment stretched family funds to the limit--they'll
never be able to afford cat insulin shots. When Mira's parents tell
her they may have to give Fig up to people who can afford his
treatment, Mira insists she can earn the $2,000 needed within a
month. Armed with ingenuity, determination, and one surprising
ally, can Mira save her best (four-legged) friend before it's too
late?
