Twenty-One Ponies

BOOK TWO OF THE SECRET SISTERS SERIES
Tess Thomas is an expert at getting into trouble. First, she secretly "borrows" her mother's diamond wedding earrings to wear to the church Harvest Party. But when the earrings get lost, Tess has to confess to her mom what she's done–and learns the hard way just how her careless actions can hurt another person.

Determined to make things right, Tess decides to do one nice thing every day to get back on her mom's good side. Unfortunately, things go from bad to worse when Tess makes another big mistake! How will she ever get her mom to forgive her now? With the help of her secret sister and a Native American story, however, Tess discovers that forgiveness isn't something you earn–and that, despite all her blunders, maybe she really isn't such a terrible mess after all.
