About This Book

The whoosh of rollerblades zooming, the scent of fresh hay in the air, and the buzz of a cheering crowd fill the day. Three friends race against time—Betty with her horse, Hannah ready to sing, and Zoe speeding on wheels. Can they cheer each other on and still shine in their own big moments?

This middle-grade book follows Betty and her friends as they prepare for their individual competitions—a horse show, a singing contest, and a rollerblading race—all scheduled on the same day. It explores themes of friendship, support, and time management suitable for readers ages 9 to 12. The story is gentle with positive messages about encouragement and balancing priorities.
