The Clique

Have you ever moved somewhere new and had to meet new people? Claire moved from Orlando, Florida to Westchester, New York and it seems like a whole new planet to her. Claire moved into a guest house of one of Claire’s dad’s friend. Claire and I are very alike in many ways but there is one big difference!

There are many ways that I am alike and different compared to Claire. One thing that we are alike is that we are the same age. I don’t think that when you’re in 7th grade it is that hard to make new friends but for Claire it was. Another obvious way that we are alike is that we both moved from a smaller place to a bigger place. When Claire moved she moved into a guest house and didn’t make friends with the girl that lived there it was harder for her.

Even though Claire and I are very alike we are also different. There is one main difference between us. The big difference is that it was really hard for Claire to make friends, for me I tried out for a soccer team and when I made it everyone was really nice to me and that’s how I decided what school to go to! One other difference is that we don’t live in the same place. Claire lives in a big city, state because she lives in New York! I don’t live in a state that big!

When you find out you are moving normally you are very sad! I know when I found out I was really sad and scared. Once you meet people though, they are really nice! Now I don’t ever want to move from Pewaukee. Claire doesn’t get along with the girls in New York at first but by the end of the book they see that Claire is really nice and then they all want to be her friend. Moving get seem sad and scary and it is but once you make friends you find out it’s not that hard but can be a little scary at times!
