Take Pippi Longstockingâs joie de vivre, blend it with a 21st century urban setting, toss in a dog named Otto for good measure and what do you get? This joyfully carefree story about two unlikely friends.
Itâs a pair of silver sequined sneakers that unexpectedly flips Emilyâs comfortable, predictable world upside down. Or, more precisely, itâs the girl wearing them.
The shoes belong to Rani, who moves into Emilyâs apartment buildingâand her lifeâwith absolutely no one but her dog Otto. (Her research scientist mother is away in Patagonia.) And thatâs only the first rule that Emily watches Rani break without hesitation.
But itâs not just that Rani breaks rules. Most of the time, she doesnât seem to know the rules exist. Why canât she bungee jump off their building? Or bring an ice cream truck to school?
For steady and orderly Emily, Raniâs approach to life feels impossible . . . and more than a little irresistible. But is there a place for her in Raniâs world? And should she find a way to make space for Rani in her own?
