FIVE STARS on Amazon

Patience Honey Caputo is eleven and small for her age, which is another way of saying she is cute. Being cute means that Patience has endured a lifetime of head pats and cheek pinches and has hated every minute of it. Now that she is starting middle school, and almost a teenager, Patience expects her life will finally change. And life does change, but not in the way Patience imagines.

The first day of school is a disaster from the moment the bus arrives. Her best friend seems like a stranger. The stupid school is a confusing maze of round buildings, and Patience gets lost. Then her plan to join the school's newspaper is ruined when Patience clashes with the editor - a big mistake that will haunt Patience all year.

Told with humor and heart, Patience is Waiting is the story of a girl trying to figure out what to do, when she doesn't know what to do.

Book #1 in the Patience in Progress series.
