The New Girl

A fun-filled story for younger readers.

As the new girl at Bais Naomi, Hili Rosen hopes for a fresh start. She meets the fun-loving Green twins, Tova and Shulamis, and things are looking up — but not for long. The rest of the class isn’t friendly at all! Did Hili make a huge mistake by switching schools?

Ruthie Somerfield is the undisputed queen of class 4B. The girls all put up with her bossy ways until one day, she makes a mean comment that goes way too far. Things go from bad to worse as the class splits up and girls start choosing sides. Will Hili’s dream of a school where everyone gets along ever come true?

Award-winning author Faygie Holt presents a lively story about friendship and courage. In The New Girl, you’ll meet a determined group of girls who struggle to stick up for what’s right — even when it’s hard.
