Leaving There

Kaija and her family move to where her mother and great-aunt grew up. Now Kaija is the new girl, and her friends are far away. And already in the first week after the move, she seems to have dropped off their radar. So, Kaija is left to find her own way, find out who she really is, and what friendship means, anyway. It’s a good thing she has Emily, lots of cats, and the prospect of a new beginning – for her mother and great aunt as well.
