Description
Meet Amelia Louise McBride.
She's nine years old, a former New Yorker who's now living in a small town after her parents decided to get divorced, and dealing with everything from being the new kid in school to getting her first kiss. But you know what? She's got her mom and her aunt Tanner (who happens to be an ex-rock star) and her friends Reggie, Rhonda, and Pajamaman, and everything's going to be okay. Except, of course, when it isn't.
In this second book in the series, G.A.S.P. (Gathering of Awesome Super Pals) learns more about Amelia's mysterious aunt Tanner's past, deals with first love, figures out what it takes to be a superhero, and proves that eggs aren't just a part of a balanced breakfast!
