From Newbery Medalist Meg Medina, the bittersweet story of two girls who will always be each other-s n-mero uno, even though one is moving away.
A big truck with its mouth wide open is parked at the curb. Already it has gobbled up Evelyn-s mirror with heart stickers around the edge ... and the sofa that we bounce on to get to the moon.
Evelyn Del Rey is Daniela-s best friend. They do everything together and even live in twin apartments right across the street from each other: Daniela with her mami and hamster, and Evelyn with her mami, papi and cat. But not after today - not after Evelyn moves away. The girls play amid the moving boxes until it-s time to say goodbye, making promises to keep in touch, because they know that their friendship will always be special. The tenderness of Meg Medina-s beautifully written story about friendship and change is balanced by Sonia S-hez-s colourful and vibrant depictions of the girls- urban neighbourhood.
