Thirteen-year-old Margaret "Mac" Whitford's life is spinning out of control. Her parents are getting divorced, and Mac is caught in the middle of their bitter custody battle. Mac feels like the trophy in a championship prizefight. Her mother and father are so busy talking to judges and lawyers and therapists, they forget about the one person who really matters--Mac.Enter Henrietta Porter LePage Middleton, Mac's seventy-something court-appointed guardian. Henrietta wears a red beret and rides a double bicycle in the wrong direction down one-way streets. Henrietta works at the museum and enjoys art and books and music. When Mac's with Henrietta, she feels like her old self again. And with Henrietta in her corner, Mac knows she'll find the courage to stand up for herself and fight for what's right--for everyone.
