In this heartfelt companion to Jamie Sumnerâs acclaimed and beloved novels Roll with It and Time to Roll, Ellie finds herself faced with first love and learning to let go.
Itâs the very end of eighth grade and all everyone can talk about is high schoolâeveryone except Ellie Cowan. Ellie wants to freeze time. Middle school was epic. She moved to Oklahoma, made her best friends, won a baking championship, quit a beauty pageant, and dominated Putt-Putt golf in her wheelchair.
But now her feelings for her best friend Bert are starting to change. When did Bert get so cute? And why are all the other girls suddenly noticing, too? As if that isnât enough to deal with, Grandpaâs health takes a turn for the worse. So what do you do when you donât know how to hold on and when to let go?
