"
Amanda
Woods
is discovering that there are some things in

Amanda
Woods

Amanda
K
. Woods—someone who is proud and strong and sure of herself, someone who can have a French pen pal and a best friend of her own choosing, someone who finds four-leaf clovers and can get perfect scores on her math homework. There is more to

Amanda
herself doesn’t even know yet, but she’s finding out. In her first novel for older children, Ann Cameron presents a heroine who is philosophical and honest as only a twelve-year-old can be."--From publisher.
