During the summer of 1963, thirteen-year-old Tree Taylor has two goals: to kiss a boy and to get her first big break as a journalist. When a potential news story practically lands in Tree's lap, she learns about the complex ethics of investigative journalism. There's some moralizing, but the satisfying story's setting is nicely enlivened by references to period music and politics.
