Dear Iggie. How are you? I hope you're fine because nobody around here is . . .
Winnie's best friend, Iggie, has just moved away – and Winnie's bored out of her mind without her.
So she's determined to be friends with the new family, the Garbers, who've moved into Iggie's old house – especially Glenn, who's kind of cute. But certain people don't want the Garbers to be there, and have started a petition to get rid of them.

And the toughest thing of all is that Winnie is terrified her parents might sign the petition – and there's nothing she can do to stop them . . .
