After her family moves across the country and she starts at a new school, Shelby Bloom struggles to make friends and find her place. She tries to share other kids' interests but doesn't fit in with the fashionistas, the burping boys, or the rock star wannabes. Finally, Shelby discovers she has more in common with the horse-loving girls than she'd thought, and she finds two friends who love a good laugh almost as much as she does.
