My Life in Pink & Green: Pink & Green Book One

Twelve-year-old Lucy Desberg is a natural problem-solver. At her family?s struggling pharmacy, she has a line of makeover customers for every school dance and bat mitzvah. But all the makeup tips in the world won?t help save the business. If only she could find a way to make it the center of town again?a place where people want to spend time, like in the old days. Lucy dreams up a solution that could resuscitate the family business and help the environment, too. But will Lucy?s family stop fighting long enough to listen to a seventh-grader?

In a starred review, Kirkus said this novel ?successfully delivers an authentic and endearing portrait of the not-quite-teen experience,? and Booklist called it ?a warm, uplifting debut.? Readers everywhere have responded to Lucy?s independence and initiative?not to mention her great style.
