In Chinese, *peng you* means friend. But in any language, all Anna knows for certain is that friendship is complicated.
When Anna needs company, she turns to her books. Whether traveling through *A Wrinkle in Time* , or peering over *My Side of the Mountain* , books provide what real life cannot—constant companionship and insight into her changing world.
Books, however, can’t tell Anna how to find a true friend. She’ll have to discover that on her own. In the tradition of classics like Maud Hart Lovelace’s Betsy-Tacy books and Eleanor Estes’ *One Hundred Dresses* , this novel subtly explores what it takes to make friends and what it means to be one.
