The Tessa Miyata series by Julie Abe is a contemporary middle grade series that started with Tessa Miyata Is No Hero (2023). The books follow a Japanese-American girl navigating the challenges of school, friendship, and identity.
Tessa Miyata Is So Unlucky (2024) continues the story. Unlike Abe’s fantasy work, this series is grounded in real-world settings, though it keeps the same warmth and humor that defines her writing.
