June is thrilled to get a new neighbor: Mae! Soon the two of them are best friends and are having adventures determined by the Wonder Wheel that they spin each morning. Whether it's pretending to be a dog for a day or collecting things that are blue, the girls never know what each day will bring.
But June has a secret: her dog Sammy can talk, but only she can hear him. Will her new best friend believe her if she tells her?
This early chapter book with 28 short chapters is perfect for readers who are ready to move on from picture books.
"[June's] older teenage sister, Isabella, is too old to play with them anymore, so June and Sammy go looking for a new friend to join their crew and share their motto of 'Fun! Friendly! Full of Adventure!' ...With the help of the Wonder Wheel, a game sent to June by her grandma Penny, June sets out to discover if Mae is the friend they've been searching for. In 28 short chapters, with cartoonlike illustrations, the narrative moves quickly and ends happily." — Vivian Ho, School Library Journal
