But when the mine closes, the family has to move back into the apartment. Hope is crushed. She can't believe her perfect life is going to turn into a mess. But then Hope meets a girl named Lina who lives in the apartment next to the family. Lina is always going on about how great her life is. Hope is starting to think that maybe she's been too hard on herself. Maybe she can still have a perfect life after all.; 8vo; $6.00.
