When my mother was down in the Summer she gave me this book. And I just got done with it. It made me laugh and cry and think. I thought this was a great book. And would recommend it to anyone.
This is what it says on the back of the book.
"Twelve year old CECEE is in trouble for year she's taken care of her mother , Camille, the town's tiara-wearing, lipstick-smeared laughing stock, a woman who is trapped in her long ago moment of glory as the 1951 Vidal Onion queen."
