Wendy Mass turns to another magical birthday: 13!
When Tara, a self-proclaimed shrinking violet, steals the school mascot, a goat, in order to make some friends with the popular crowd and gets caught, she gets herself in a heap of trouble. In addition, her parents decide that instead of taking her on their summer trip to Madagascar to study the courtship rituals of the Bamboo Lemur, she must go stay with her aunt, uncle, and bratty cousin Emily St. Claire in Willow Falls. Tara thinks it's a good time to start over; she'll be turning 13 after all, so she might as well make the best of it and perhaps even attempt to break out of her shell (in a non-criminal manner). What Tara doesn't know is that this charmed town has something big in store for her on her 13th birthday. It's not a typical birthday. But then again, nothing is Willow Falls is exactly typical!

I loved this book! you should really read it! its pretty funny how tara ended up at willow falls. I won't say how she ends up there though because than I would spoil it. anyway I love this author. you should look for her books!
it is such a great book love Wendy mass's books wonderful!!
the book is cool and wow
I want to read this book!
I ordered it from Amazon, a long with Leap Day. I recently finished it and LOVED IT.
This is an awesome book. It's the most recent book in the series and is probably the best. It's about a girl who is misunderstood by her parents(or so she thinks) and is disappointed when her parents send her off on a vacation for the whole summer at her cousins house. But there is more of a mystery about why she is actually there than she thinks. The ending leaves you on a big cliff hanger. Hope u read it. :-)
Love this book and the series

I really WANT to read this thing!!!! it looks so cool~
