Besties: Work It Out by Kayla Miller and Jeffrey Canino, illustrated by Kristina Luu

Besties: Work It OutBesties: Work It Out by Kayla Miller
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Beth and Chanda are 6th grade best friends in this graphic novel that tackles friendship and the ups and downs it takes as they housesit and dog sit for Mrs Langford. Older sister, Lisa, offers solutions but also helps them out when they get themselves into a jam. I loved the dog, Baxter, and both girls loved animals so much, with Chanda desperately wanting to show her parents she can take care of a cat. There are many situations these friends find themselves in and it is how they work them out that middle grade readers will relate and enjoy! The message about friendship is important and positive even during tough times.
