This was meant to be Alice's year to shine, but things are already going wrong...
At school, she's given young environmental activist Greta Thunberg as her pen pal for a fictional writing assignment. Why couldn't Alice get someone easy to write to, like a pop star?
Then she's put in charge of taking the Harmony Day Food Fair online, which seems impossible, especially when she is teamed up with the most annoying boy in her school.
As if she didn't have enough on her plate, Alice gets kicked out of her bedroom by her grandmother coming to stay. And no matter what Alice does, she'll never be able to live up to her infuriating big sister's achievements, right?
Through her letters to Greta, Alice finds herself opening up about her life. And as Alice approaches the hard questions by wondering, 'What would Greta do?', she starts to believe that she can make a difference - a big one.

But Arthur, her big brother, thinks the egg hunt is going to be too easy now that he's eleven-so Ada has to do a test hiding to make sure it's super hard or else Arthur will retire from the egg hunt forever! Soon Ada, Rosie, and Iggy are brainstorming about how to find the hardest hiding spot in the history of egg-hiding. This sweet and funny story is all about learning from your mistakes and accepting that sometimes you might fail.
