13 Gifts by Wendy Mass
Wendy Mass turns to another magical birthday: 13NARATOR: TBA
FORMAT: 5 CDs, Unabridged When Alyssa, a self-proclaimed shrinking violet, steals the school mascot, a goat, in order to make some friends with the popular crowd and gets caught, she gets herself in a heap of trouble. In addition, her parents decide that instead of taking her on their summer trip to Madagascar to study the courtship rituals of the Bamboo Lemur, she must go stay with her aunt, uncle, and bratty cousin Emily St. Claire in Willow Falls. Alyssa thinks it's a good time to start over; she'll be turning 13 after all, so she might as well make the best of it and perhaps even attempt to break out of her shell (in a non-criminal manner). What Alyssa doesn't know is that this charmed town has something big in store for her on her 13th birthday.
Wendy Mass is the author of A Mango-Shaped Space, Leap Day, Jeremy Fink and the Meaning of Life, Heaven Looks a Much Like the Mall, and Every Soul a Star, which won the ALA Schneider Family Award. Wendy, her husband, and their twin daughters and son live in Sparta, New Jersey.
