Twelve-year-old Willow Chance is a gifted child who loves to diagnose medical issues and is enamoured with the number sevens. She has always found it difficult to relate to people outside of her adoptive parents, but up until this point, it hasn't stopped her from spending a contented life in silence.
Willow's life abruptly changes brutally when her parents pass away in an automobile accident, leaving her on her alone in a confusing world. This book's success lies in the fact that it is not a tragedy. She overcomes her anguish, this very strange, but really charming girl. Reading about her search for a very interesting, diversified, and convincing surrogate family is both delightful and enlightening.
