Summary
"Maggie's world is turned upside down when she learns that her father has a second daughter, Callie. Maggie may need to get used to having a new sibling in her home, but she won't let Callie get in the way of her summer plans to start the Braid Girls with her best friend, Daija. Daija has always felt like she had a sister in Maggie. So she can't let Maggie's new half-sibling, Callie, take her place or interfere with their new business. She needs money to pay for extra ballet lessons so she can earn a spot in the fall dance showcase. Callie, grieving her late mom, leaves her home to move in with her father and new family. Desperate to fit in, she sees the Braid Girls as a chance to prove herself. With three very different girls on board, the Braid Girls arrive at summer camp, and business is booming. What is, until rival Angela and her friends heat up the competition with the Sistahs Who Braid." --Book jacket
