Willa, Fiona, and Val are best friends … and ninjas! On the night of their first sleepover, Willa cannot help but feel anxious. It will be a full moon and Willa has a deep “furry” secret she knows will scare her best friends away.
Lucky for Willa, “Ninjas are BRAVE!”
This is a beautiful story about acceptance and the value of real friendship, no matter who--or what--you are.
