Frankie's Run
A gentle, light, young teenage novel in the world of Blume etc. but with a refreshing sense that getting up and doing things is greatly preferable to anxious passivity. Frankie organises a marathon to save funds for the local library to be able to continue showing Disney films - and wins her boy too.
