Lena-Frieda rides a skateboard and wants to become a biologist in order to examine fruit flies, just like her beloved granny. Since her best friend Nele has moved away she doesn’t enjoy going to school any longer:
The predominant stroppy cows from the fifth grade are giving her a hard time because she prefers to look like a researcher on an expedition instead of wearing tight stretch jeans. Only Lukas seems to be friendly. But can a boy replace your best friend?
When Lena-Frieda visits Nele in her new home in Bavaria, she meets Nele’s new friend Carla, which makes her feel jealous. Is this the end of her friendship with Nele?
Wonderfully light and serious at the same time: About the confidence to make your own way.
