Eight-year-old Luise couldn’t be more satisfied with her life. She attends a totally normal school with totally normal classmates and an incredibly normal teacher. What’s more, Luise gets to sit next to her best friend Arabella, with whom she has amazing times drawing cool space-dog comics or doing other things to pass the time. But when her mom and dad, who up to that point had also seemed nearly normal, decide one day – without almost zero discussion – to pick up and move to Germany, the girl thinks they must be off their rockers. For let’s be honest: what kind of a reasonable person would move their whole family to a country where they don’t speak a word of the language, all because of a job?! How is Luise supposed to get by and find new friends? And what will become of her friendship with Arabella?
