Gabriela speaks out

"Even with her BFF going to another school, Gabby is determined to make sixth grade the best year ever! She's even ready to stand up to confident and intimidating Aaliyah Reade-Johnson if she makes fun of Gabby for her stutter. What she isn't ready for is Sixth Grade Initiation--A series of pranks the older kids play on the sixth graders. Gabby could stop the tradition if she wins the school election... but Aaliyah is running, too, which means Gabby's chances for victory are slim. Can Gabby find the courage to stand on her own, speak out for change, and do what seems impossible?"--Back cover.
