2021 Newbery Honoree on The Not-So-Uniform Life of Holly-Mei
Return to Hong Kong in the second book of this charming middle grade series starring Holly-Mei, a girl navigating her new city, new school, and new friendships.
It's the start of a new year, and Holly-Mei Jones is determined to make the most of it. She has amazing friends, a great field hockey team, and Hong Kong at her doorstep. This semester is going to be perfect...right?
Maybe not. Despite their closeness last year, Holly-Mei's friend group seems to be splintering. Desperate to bring everyone together, she ropes her friends into competing as a team in an inter-school tournament across the city.
But as Holly-Mei becomes obsessed with winning, her friends seem less interested in the tournament-and in her new attitude. Will she be able to pull off her perfect plan?
