La Respuesta (Spanish), by Theresa Marrama
Naomi and Mia are best friends. The school year is nearing an end and both girls are waiting to see if they are accepted to the college of their dreams. Naomi is hoping to be recognized by a scout from Julliard in New York City for her singing and acting talents, while Mia is waiting to see if she will be accepted to New York College of Fine Arts. One day after school, Mia is consoling Naomi about her anxiety over Julliard, when a passing student makes a comment that changes the way they look at their friendship. Eventually, Naomi gathers the courage to ask Mia an important question. She knows that she may be risking everything by asking, but will Mia's response be worth it? LEVEL 2+
