About the book
Ivy Ling feels unlucky. Her best friend has moved away, and she's got a big report due in Chinese school. Worst of all, she learns that the Ling family reunion is happening on the same day as the all-city gymnastics tournament. Ivy's been practicing for months, and her gymnastics team is counting on her. When her parents tell her she has to choose which event to attend, Ivy despairs. How can she please both her gymnastics coach and her family? Gradually Ivy comes to see that she can make her own luck- and make a decision that's right for her.
