Through journaling, thirteen-year-old Georgia reflects on her life. A talented artist just like her mother, she is surprised by an anonymous membership gift to the local art museum.

Georgia just hopes it will get her name off the “at-risk” school list to the more appealing “gifted” list. (Grades 6 & up)
