(3) YA Thirteen-year-old Sam tries to hide her alcoholic father's behavior (and her family tries to ignore it), but when she's pushed to the edge, she begins exchanging anonymous letters with an older student. Soon Sam identifies her confidant and, through their friendship, finds the strength to confront her parents. A realistic look at alcohol's ability to destroy lives. Resource list appended.
