When siblings Roman and Arianna move to a brand-new neighborhood, everything feels unfamiliar — new streets, new school, and new faces everywhere they turn. Roman can’t wait to make friends and show off his soccer skills, but shy Arianna isn’t so sure. Starting over is scary when it seems like everyone already belongs.
With her big brother by her side, Arianna soon discovers that kindness, courage, and a little bravery can open doors she never expected. Together, the two explore their new community and learn that friendship can be found in surprising places — and that every new beginning can lead to the greatest adventure.
Perfect for readers who enjoy children’s picture books, sibling stories, moving to a new home books, school anxiety books, and social-emotional learning stories, this heartwarming book celebrates family, confidence, and the magic of starting fresh in a new place.
