Description

When a new school year begins, a girl who’s always been “almost” everything—almost brave, almost confident, almost noticed—finds her life upended by a surprising opportunity to be fully seen. As she navigates friendships, expectations, and the messy realities of growing up, she learns that confidence isn’t something you wait for; it’s something you practice, even when you’re still figuring yourself out. With humor and heart, this story explores identity, belonging, and the courage it takes to step beyond the label you’ve been given. Lisa Graff’s accessible, emotionally sharp style brings a fresh, kid-centered perspective to the universal question of what it means to become more than your “almost.”
