From award-winning author Sarah Weeks comes the sweet story of a girl learning to cope with the loss of her mother. Melody never knew her mother. She died just after Melody was born, and it's been just her and her father for nearly eleven years now. Compared to the stories she's heard of her mother's remarkable personality, Melody feels completely unremarkable. And then her father starts acting mysterious. Determined to figure out what's wrong, Melody follows some leads to a nail salon, where she makes new friends, and even finds an old one from her mother's past. But friends aren't enough when Melody discovers that she's going to get a new stepmother, one she detests. And what she wishes for more than anything . . . is to have her mother to talk to. So much for an eleventh birthday surprise, right? Told with a generous helping of heart and humor as only Sarah Weeks can, Honey tells the sweet story of a girl whose eleventh birthday brings the most important gift of all.

It's up to Melody and her best friend, Nick, to piece together the clues and discover why Honey is being hidden. Meanwhile, a dog named Mo is new to Royal.
