Summary

Aura Corinne Speltzman has two problems: the kids at school and the sudden disappearance of her only friend, an invisible zebra named Harold. But everything flips upside-down when Aura's new best-friend-to-be arrives on a thunderbolt in the middle of the night. Squinting through the storm from her bedroom window, Aura watches a family drop out of the lightning into the empty house across the yard. Lonely without her long-time imaginary playmate, 11-year-old Aura climbs onto the school bus the next morning with a head full of the other kids' teasing. Loud laugh and sunshine yellow braids down her back, Eva ("Eve") von Brandt introduces herself with a joke and a smile: Life will never be the same.
