Ten-year-old Fiona Clare thinks that keeping a journal is dumb, but she writes in it several times a week at the insistence of her mother and therapist, who think it will help Fiona cope with her parents' divorce. Fiona's funny and honest journalizing chronicle her thoughts and feelings over the course of a year, as well as her discovery that no matter what happens, and even if things aren't the same, she still has a familiy.
