Peach and Plum

A New York Times Best Sellerone day 
Chapter One ofPeach and Plum opens with the season finale of the TV summer hit, My Name is Cool.  And if you’ve read the first chapter, you’ll recognize everyone in the My Name is Cool tv show theme opener. 
 
And if you haven’t read Chapter One, it’s still fun to watch 😊
Welcome to the first day of school at Maverick Elementary!
 
The story of Peach and Plum opens with Mayfair Tootle, a new student on this glorious, celebrated day of the new school year.  

And as she navigates her way on her first day of school, she quickly finds out that Maverick Elementary, or Maverick Elem (what the children call it), is a place where 5th graders act like sports legends. Where teachers are neo-soul Bohemian, dapper Dan clean, city slick hipster-ish, and … extraordinary.  

Maverick Elementary, or Maverick Elem (what the children call it), is a place where boys have googlie-eyed crushes on girls with tenth grade attitudes, and where resting snooty-faced girls with snarky little attitudes turn on each other. 
 
It’s where you’ll find one of the flyest school yard cliques around, and where highly anticipated, exclusive b-day parties are by invitation only.

And, it’s where one school year in the life at Maverick Elementary unfolds around Mayfair and her new BFF Xembi, as they create their own little school yard clique.

Until . . .
 
Mean-girl bully Kiara Campbell tries to destroy them.  

Considered a magnum opus in Children’s Literature, the story of Peach and Plum is a sweeping epic in kid lit, soon to become a middle-grade classic.
