Room for One More — Devra Newberger Speregen

Harlie's parents are acting funny. Not funny ha-ha. Funny weird. When it turns out that her mother is pregnant, ten-year-old Harlie is anything but overjoyed. Who needs a baby? Meanwhile, her class visits a senior citizens' home, where Harlie “adopts a grandmother.” Mabel is cool enough to use e-mail and old enough to have some wild tales to tell. With the help of Mabel and her best friends Miss O, Juliette, Justine, and Isabella, Harlie may just discover that there's always room for more.


Each book in the Miss O and Friends series is told from the perspective of one of the friends, focusing on her unique perspective and interests, and each one is fun to read, action-packed, and full of answers and sound advice for meeting the real-life challenges of tween girls.
