| Eleven-year-old Amanda Woods is discovering that the person other people think she is and the person she really is are not the same. So she changes her name from bland Amanda Woods to Amanda K. Woods—someone who is proud and strong and sure of herself. And that small change sets off a chain reaction, leaving Amanda—and the whole Woods family—entirely different. Ann Cameron’s first novel for middle readers is every bit as insightful as her best-selling chapter books—and her fans will take Amanda to their hearts. | |
