Book Summary or Synopsis

In twelve-year old Jane's well-ordered, unimaginable live, “nothing ever happens.” She goes to a private school on New York's upper East Side, and through she is “in” with Pamela's club, she has no best friend and no ideas of her own. Jane just does what's expected of her by Pamela, by her teachers, and by her parents. When Kallie, a serious girl who lives in Greenwich Village and can never belong to the club, joins Jane's seventh-grade class. Jane slowly begins to learn about a new, uncoventional way of life. At Kallie's corner, Jane takes her first step into the adult world and makes things happen.
