Keys To The City by Lisa Schroeder

In this book, from Nora's best friend Libby's point of view, we see how she discovers her talent and life joy after feeling down and frustrated at the unknown she faced for her school project after the other students seemed to all know theirs.

With her parents moving to own a failing inn, arguing all the time, new friends Tyler and Vivian and a welcome but sometimes sad distraction as she realises they have something precious she'd love but can't ever have, her own dog.

We see Libby have to adapt to a lot of change and uncertainty but discovering friends she didn't have before helps her to forget her worries and relax and have fun as she sets about discovering her true talent. It was a fun and quick read for those who love animals especially!
