FROM THE COVER:
Izzy's the nice girl, from a family that believes good manners and a stiff upper lip are key to facing any situation. Even after a car accident leaves her disabled, she's determined not to show how much she's hurting. But every day, Izzy faces the hard fact that things will never be the same again.

It takes Rosamunde, a girl who seems to care nothing about good manners, to forcibly disrupt Izzy's life and help her face her changed existence. And as she comes to terms with the past, Izzy can even see that there's a new richness to life, and she can draw on strengths she never dreamed she had.

[Izzy] "conveys a keen understanding of the physical practicalities involved in coping with a handicap." --starred review, Booklist
