11-year-old, Soraya, is the new African six grader in town who moved from Nairobi, the capitol of Kenya, to West Virginia with her single father and older brother. Soraya is trying to figure out who she is and where she really belongs. All Soraya wants is to fit in and be normal.
Being the new girl, Soraya doesn't know anyone except her next-door neighbor David, who is an indecisionive and weird boy. She then later meets three cocky, rude girls, Ashley, Jenna, and Nora, whom their nickname is "The Alphas," which clearly they made sure that they do not want to be friends.
Not only that being the new girl is already hard enough, but Soraya has to deal with being the only dark-skinned person in her school, adjusting to middle school, making friends, dealing with racism, and trying not to do anything embarrassing.
Can Soraya survive being the "new girl" in town?
