About

Twelve-year-old Caroline feels torn. She grieves over her sister who has a severe heart problem that keeps her in and out of the hospital. But at the same time, she is jealous of her sister's beauty and sweet disposition, which causes everyone to admire her. Caroline longs to be beautiful, to get attention from her parents-just to be somebody, anybody, other than plain old Caroline Cabot.   Her self-image changes, however, when she meets glamorous seventeen-year-old Lillina MacGregor. Lillina makes her feel like somebody, but does Lillina tell the truth? Is she really 17? And married? And a model in New York? Caroline must rely on her inner strengths as she discovers the truth about Lillina, and will face several challenging situations during "the summer of Mrs. MacGregor."

Reviews

"A satisfying drama with strong popular appeal."
Booklist
"Wright has created a most appealing character in Caroline, who takes small but credible steps toward growing up. Lillina, too, wins readers' sympathies, providing a contrast to Caroline's down-to-earth sensibility."
Publishers Weekly
"Well written with humor, strong characterization, and a convincing plot, readers will not be disappointed by this fast-paced book."
