A boy visiting China is caught up in a struggle to save a panda cub's life

When your Dad's an undertaker, your Mom's in heaven, and your Grandma's got a screw loose... it's good to have a friend who understands you. Even if he is a boy. Thomas J. is Vada's best friend. They live near enough to each other to bike ride over and play, or even just hang out. The two are always together, sharing their afternoons, their adventures in the lake, and all of their secrets. Then something terrible happens to Thomas J. and Vada has to learn to fill her days without her best friend around.

When you're an undertaker's daughter, life's not exactly normal to begin with. Vada Sultenfuss is being kicked out of her room because her stepmother, Shelly, is about to have a baby. Her friend Judy's in love with a jerk. And even though Vada's best friend Thomas J died two years ago, she still misses him. But it's not just the outside world that's changing. Suddenly, Vada's beginning to wonder whether she'd rather write a really good poem -- or get a really good kiss. 
Then Vada gets the chance to visit her Uncle Phil in Los Angeles -- and maybe find out more about her mother, who died when Vada was born. Her only guide to the sprawling city is a boy with an attitude problem -- Nick, her Uncle Phil's almost-stepson who acts like it's pure torture to show her around L.A. But in this strange land of sun and palms, Vada will make some amazing discoveries....
