The Fix-It Friends

Seven-year-old Veronica Conti knows that when problems arise, it's time for the Fix-It Friends to unite!
Veronica understands that recess is the best part of the day. So when her classmate Maya doesn't play during recess because she's too afraid of bugs, Veronica recognizes a HUGE problem that needs to be fixed.
Attempting to tackle the issue on her own, Veronica quickly learns that sometimes good intentions can make things a tiny bit worse... or maybe a lot worse. Before you can say "bugging out," Veronica forms a team with her best friend Cora, tech whiz Ezra, and her bossy big brother, Jude. Together, they become the Fix-It Friends, ready to tackle Maya's problem and every problem!
The first adventure in The Fix-It Friends chapter book series blends humor with heart as the group learns to deal with fears and phobias. Includes a toolbox of expert advice on facing your fears!
