A realistic contemporary story of two girls whose divorced parents begin to date--perfect for fans of Lisa Graff, Sara Pennypacker, and Rita Williams-Garcia. A smart, endearing story about two girls who are blending families, growing up, and building a friendship. (Kirkus starred review)
Other than their first names, Naomi Marie and Naomi Edith are sure they have nothing in common, and they wouldn't mind keeping it that way.
Naomi Marie starts clubs at the library and adores being a big sister. Naomi Edith loves quiet Saturdays and hanging with her best friend in her backyard. And while Naomi Marie's father lives a few blocks away, Naomi Edith wonders how she's supposed to get through each day a whole country apart from her mother.
When Naomi Marie's mom and Naomi Edith's dad get serious about dating, each girl tries to cling to the life she knows and loves. Then their parents push them into attending a class together, where they might just have to find a way to work with each other--and maybe even join forces to find new ways to define family.
They share a first name, but can they learn to share a family?
- An Unlikely Friendship: Naomi Marie is a bubbly club-starter, and Naomi Edith is a quiet backyard-hanger. They're sure they have nothing in common, until their parents start dating.
- A New Blended Family: When their single parents get serious, the two Naomis are pushed into taking a class together, forcing them to navigate what their new family could look like.
- Finding Your Place: Naomi Edith's mom lives across the country, while Naomi Marie's dad is just down the street. Both girls struggle to hold on to the lives they love as everything begins to change.
- Realistic and Relatable: A heartfelt contemporary novel perfect for readers ages 8-12 and fans of authors like Rita Williams-Garcia and Sara Pennypacker.
