When Eliza’s parents refuse to allow her to participate in a cake decorating class with her friend, she is angry. But the opportunity to show her parents she CAN stick with something, despite her track record, comes when her brother drops out of his karate class. Although Eliza isn’t terribly excited about karate, she is determined to prove her parents are wrong about her. What Eliza doesn’t realize, is just how difficult sticking with it is going to be.  (Pennsylvania Young Reader's Choice Award Program, 2017)
