| Publisher Description: Where did she come from? Molly Jane Fletcher was adopted. She's known it for as long as she can remember. It's not something that usually bothers her, but lately, it's all she can think about. Now Molly has a chance to find her birthmother--a chance to understand where she came from, and why she was given away. But the Fletchers aren't happy about her decision to unearth the past. They're afraid that everyone involved may get hurt. That's a chance that Molly may be willing to take. "Skillfully and sensitively written can make you laugh and cry at a single sitting."-Voice of Youth Advocates "Okimoto writes about the elemental search for roots, the fear as well as the great happiness it can bring."-Booklist "A book that goes beyond the adoption topic to encompass family feelings and dynamics."-School Library Journal |
