      About This Book

      No one ever said being a gift was easy -- especially when you're stuck with two brothers. So Carolyn has learned a thing or two about how to survive. She keeps her hair too short for ribbons. She wears boys' clothes whenever possible. And she avoids being seen with gifts who wear Mary Janes -- at all costs. But lately things are changing, and Carolyn's techniques don't seem to be working anymore. Can she figure out how to be a girl -- without losing track of who she really is?
