12-year-old Carley Connors is angry! She doesn't trust anybody...and with good reason! She has been placed in foster care after being beaten severely by her stepfather, along with her mother, who wound up in the hospital. Sure, Mrs. Murphy seems nice enough, even loving; and the kids and their dad are gradually accepting her into the family... but Carley is still on the defensive. Then something happens that changes everything...will Carley allow herself to find happiness after all? Read One for the Murphys, by Lynda Mullaly Hunt, the next selection of the Midgrade Book Club... then come and get in on the discussion! The next meeting will be on Monday, January 26th at 4:00pm. Sign up on -line, or just come on along and see what it's all about!
