Spring Begins in March

Meg Copeland is having a difficult spring. First, Grandma is coming to live with the Copeland family, crushing Meg's plans to have her own bedroom. Instead she must share with Sally (whom we met in the first Copeland book, [Mine For Keeps][1]). Second, Meg wants a dog and it looks like that's not going to happen...or is it? But third and perhaps most importantly, Meg's marks at school are so low that the teacher has already informed the Copeland parents that Meg is not going to pass on to the next grade. She's going to be held back. A bad case of the flu, a serious run-in with Grandma, the worry over school...Meg is bereft, hopeless. But then, older sister Sally and her wonderful friend, Elsje, devise a plan. They can address all of Meg's problems, if Meg herself is willing to work hard. Will she take their last-chance offer to get her life back on track? Sympathetic and absorbing, this book is one of my all-time favorites and has been for many years. A timeless classic!
