Overview
Twelve-year-old Miraās summer is looking pretty bleak. Her best friend Thomas just moved a billion and one miles away from Florida to Washington, DC. Her dad is job searching and heās been super down lately. Her phone screen cracked after a home science experiment gone wrong. And of all people who could have moved into Thomasās old house down the street, Mira gets stuck with Tamika Smith, her know-it-all nemesis whoās kept Mira in second place at the school science fair four years running.
Miraās beloved cat, Sir Fig Newton, has been the most stable thing in her life lately, but now he seems off, too. With her phone gone and no internet over the weekend at her strict Granās house, Mira must research Figās symptoms the old-fashioned way: at the library. She determines that he has āthe silent cat killerā diabetes. A visit to the vet confirms her diagnosis, but that one appointment stretched family funds to the limitātheyāll never be able to afford cat insulin shots.
When Miraās parents tell her they may have to give Fig up to people who can afford his treatment, Mira insists she can earn the $2,000 needed within a month. Armed with ingenuity, determination, and one surprising ally, can Mira save her best (four-legged) friend before itās too late?
