Eleven-year-old Kammie tells most of this story from inside the well into which she's fallen after a (fake) initiation into a popular-girls' clique. For much of the brief text, readers are right there with Kammie, learning vivid details of her predicament. Kammie's voice--often funny, but with enough truths about her problems in and out of the well that we take her seriously--is compelling.
