What's special about Cassandra? Absolutely nothing.

 

She's as ordinary as any other fifth grader. And yet her ordinary life is riddled with hilarious and sometimes heart-breaking mishaps as she guides herself through the world of preteens on the brink of adulthood.

​

When Cassandra's parents begin a pattern of fighting, Cassandra's friends warn her about the D-word: Divorce. Cassandra enlists her younger sister Emily to help their parents fall in love again.

But when each of their attempts backfire pathetically, she panics. Will their efforts make a difference? Or is life as they know it about to end?
