And it’s where she discovers that sometimes serendipity is even better than luck. “With perfectly flawed characters and challenges people of all ages will relate to, Allyson Apsey has crafted one of those rare tales that students and teachers will fall in love with together.” —Dr. Brad Gustafson, national distinguished principal, best-selling author"Raw! Real! Refreshing! The Serendipity Journal will easily be our next read-aloud! Its dynamic story is easily relatable and full of fun!" —Rae Hughart, sixth-grade math teacher, director of trainingand development for the Teach Better team“You know what’s tough? Middle school. You know what else is tough? Moving. How about if you are a middle schooler who has to move and start fresh in a new school? In her new book, The Serendipity Journal, Allyson Apsey introduces us to Kipalee, a middle school girl who many of us can relate to and who we can’t help but fall in love with as we cheer her on through her struggles with moving and middle school. This realistic fiction book is one that I can’t wait to share with so many upper-elementary and middle school students. Thanks to one caring adult, Kipalee’s teacher, we see how Kip learns to take care of herself and stand up for herself. I wish The Serendipity Journal had been around when I was stumbling through middle school! Readers are going to love that this book comes with a playlist and background information from the author about each chapter. Be sure to grab a copy for yourself and then share this important book with as many students as you can.” —Liz Garden, elementary principal, Dr. Leroy E.
