Description
Living in the small town of East Thumb, Maine, upstairs from her family's diner, twelve-year-old Lizzy Sherman searches for signs to guide her and perhaps guarantee her a bump-free path through life. She pays attention to the clouds in the sky, the ice cubes in her water, the heart-shaped puddle of the juice her friend spilled. If only she can figure out what the signs are trying to tell her, she'll know what to do next.
When Lizzy and her best friend go searching for a stray cat and find a runaway girl instead, they want to help. And when Lizzy notices a tiny four-leaf clover tattooed on the girl's hand, she knows it's a sign. Lizzy hides the girl inside her bedroom closet, convinced the girl will be able to protect Lizzy's family from tragedy. But signs can be tricky, and what the girl has to offer may be more valuable that luck.
Advance Praise
"Readers are in luck! Lizzy and the Good Luck Girl is a lively
tale of compassion and self-discovery, with a perfect blend of humor,
heart, and hope. Lizzy's optimism, drive, and quirky belief in signs
from the universe make her a character worth rooting for."―--Anna Staniszewski, author of The Dirt Diary
"On
one hand, Lizzy is about the luckiest girl you ever heard of. She lives
over her family's small-town diner, enjoying an endless supply of
sandwiches and ice cream sundaes. But Lizzy is also a worrier,
constantly searching for reassuring signs from the universe. When a
mission to feed a stray cat turns up a runaway girl, Lizzy gains a whole
new set of worries. Readers will root for the memorable, kindhearted
protagonist in this engaging story about loss and recovery."
―Martha Freeman, author of Zap! and the Secret Cookie Club series
