A Simple Life
On top of struggling with life at home, Sophia Ann Hart has to suddenly move to a new place. She must adjust to her new surroundings--a new city and a new school. With this move, Sophia meets two boys who quickly become her best friends, offering her a new perspective on life, and help her find a sense of belonging and purpose.

It can be difficult to see what really matters--true friendship and, ultimately, a real family.
