Famous Rowena Lamont by Barbara Willard

The Journal of the Famous Rowena Lamont is the secret diary - beginning before her own birth! - of this remarkable girl. She shares it only with her new-made friend, Kate, over a Christmas holiday when they both have to stay at their boarding school. Kate gasps at the details she reads in the Journal and laughs at and admires the fantastic conversations that flow from Rowena's lips. But, as time goes on, Kate becomes quietly worried and then alarmed at various turns of events. The book is record of a tragedy, but on the way there is comedy in abundance and the story has a pace and a warmth that will attract all Barbara Willard's admirers and many other readers besides.
