Twelve-year-old Tamia is the master of her own sanctuary, a room where even the dust motes seem to dance with "military precision." But her perfectly curated world is about to be upended by a "sticky stumper" of a mystery. When a "visceral" and "viscous" entity known as the Snot Sprite appears, Tamia is forced to confront her deepest aversions. To solve the sprite's riddle, she must trade her lemon polish for "newfound empathy" and discover that the most "extraordinary" friendships are often the ones that start with a mess.
