4.0

4 out of 5 stars. This book is about a young girl dealing with the transition from being an only child to becoming part of a large blended family when her mom gets married. She also has to leave her traditional school and take on her new family's adoption of “free schooling” which is similar to what teachers would call student driven project based learning. The main character brings with her a talent for baking and playing the drums. Each of her sisters also play musical instruments. The adjustment is difficult for the main character at first, but eventually she bonds with her sisters once they decide to create a community block party/ wedding celebration for their parents where they join together and perform as a band.Overall, I would recommend this book to students. I would say that it would be appropriate for 4th grade and up.
