Alice Mayfair, a twelve-year-old girl, has never felt like she belonged with her family or any of the schools she has attended. This year, she has been sent to her eighth boarding school, The Experimental Center for Love and Learning. Despite fitting in better than usual, she is still desperate for a friend. One night, her wish comes true when she rescues Millie, a bigfoot who has snuck into the no-fur (human) world. Alice and Millie form an unlikely friendship but must keep Millie’s true identity a secret from those who wish to harm her kind.
I just finished reading this remarkable book that you’d love. It was a wacky adventure and a unique ride. Who doesn’t love the idea of Bigfoot, right? This book reminded me of the alien books I read and reviewed.
But it’s not just about Bigfoot – this book tackles some critical issues, like bullying, how we treat others, and the importance of friendship. I was so invested in the characters, especially Alice, a misunderstood and kind-hearted girl. And Millie? Well, she’s just the cutest thing ever.
The yare customs in this book were out of this world.
The different perspectives in each chapter kept me engaged and wanting more.
This book made me think about our place in the world and how we treat others. It would be an excellent read for anyone who loves a good adventure and believes in the power of friendship. And the best part? There are two more books in the series that I can’t wait to read.
So, if you’re looking for a fun and heartwarming read that will leave you feeling good, this book is definitely for you. Give it a try – I promise you won’t be disappointed!
