About This Book
The scent of fresh paint fills the air as new footsteps echo through the house. Hannah and Rosie’s world shifts with each beat of their dad’s music and the arrival of a new sister they never expected. Change is loud, strange, and full of hope, but it also stirs feelings they’re just beginning to understand.
