Emmie & friends. 9, Entirely Emmy /

Libenson, Terri,


These days, Emmie doesn't feel so invisible. At least not around her best friends and her crush, Tyler. Class-clown Joe's jokes aren't landing the way they used to. Who doesn't love a good prank? Apparently not his so-called friends, who don't even seem to care if he's around. When their class goes on an end-of-year camping trip, Emmie and Joe find themselves stuck together--and expect the worst. But what happens instead turns out to be entirely unexpected.

Siblings Ruby and Henry have an unusual kind of home life compared to their friends. Their family operates an animal sanctuary with a unique collection of full-time pet residents: a pig, a dog, the world's bossiest cat, two silly goats, and a llama who thinks he's a human. Not to mention, Ruby and Henry's mom is also a vet at the animal clinic in town. Let's just say, when it comes to animals, it's hard for Ruby and Henry's family to say no. But a couple months ago, their parents decided that the farm is full. No additional resident farm animals. No more fosters. Of course, rules are meant to be broken... A scared puppy has just arrived at their mom's clinic, and he's lost mobility in his back legs because of an injury. What's worse is that the newly named Arlo clearly knows he's been abandoned. But with Ruby's builder brain, Henry's heart, and a little bit of kindness from their ragtag group of animals at the sanctuary, they might just be able to teach Arlo how to trust again.
