Synopsis

Maya has always preferred the quiet comfort of her own room, her books her best friends. But with the dreaded first day of middle school looming, her carefully constructed world is about to be turned upside down. The hallways seem impossibly long, the classrooms overwhelmingly large, and the sheer number of new faces sends her stomach into knots. Every locker slam, every whispered conversation, feels like a spotlight aimed directly at her shyness. Maya knows she needs to find a way to navigate this new territory, but how can she possibly overcome the mountain of anxiety that stands between her and making a single friend? Join Maya as she embarks on an unexpected adventure through the maze of middle school. From navigating the treacherous waters of the cafeteria to finding her voice in a bustling classroom, Maya discovers that courage isn't about not being scared, but about taking small steps forward even when your knees are knocking. Along the way, she'll encounter quirky classmates, a surprisingly understanding teacher, and a hidden talent she never knew she possessed. This is a story about finding your own path, even when it feels like you're lost, and learning that sometimes, the greatest adventures begin with the bravest whisper.
