But it takes practice and concentration. How can she focus on becoming a moko jumbi majorette when her best friend moves away, and if that weren't enough, a new family moves into the house next door. Where are they from and what sort of people are they anyway? And if THAT weren't enough, a hurricane's on its way! Lexi's so busy coping with loss, worry, and impending disaster, is there room in her life for a dream?
