Summary
Motherless since she was a young child, 12-year-old Gabby reluctantly faces adolescence without the guidance of a female role model. When her father announces his engagement to Cleo, Gabby is sure her wish for a mother has been answered. Then Cleo breaks the engagement, and Gabby, feeling more lost than ever, sets out to learn the truth about her own mother.

Media Reviews
"Although slow in spots, Baskin's first person narrative is smoothly engaging overall, and the dialogue rings true. The sympathetic protagonist has reality and dimension, and readers should be squarely in her corner as she goes through the difficult process of becoming a young woman."
-- Kirkus
