From National Book Award-winning author Kathryn Erskine comes a heartfelt, poignant novel that tackles grief, change, and the struggle to let your voice be heard. But speaking up one time, let alone five, is easier said than done. Perfect for fans of Lynda Mullaly Hunt, Erin Entrada Kelly, and Ali Benjamin.Shy, eleven-year-old Lily made her dad an important promise before he passed away--that she would "Strive for Five" and speak her mind at least five times.
Fortunately, she meets curling-obsessed Hobart and quiet Dunya at the beginning of sixth grade. It'll be even harder now that Lily must attend public school for the first time. Their kindness gives Lily hope that life without Dad might just be bearable.But when Lily and her friends are bullied by Ryan and his mean clique, she quickly discovers the true meaning of friendship and speaking out.
