Counting by 7s by Holly Goldberg SloanMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
This has to be one of my all time favorite books. The story is of a twelve-year-old genius named Willow Chance. She lives in her own little world studying plants, and diseases, and about everything else. Needless to say, she has a difficult time fitting in with her peers, but she is happy in her world. Then her parents are killed in an automobile accident. She is adopted, has no next of kin, and is likely a candidate for a group home. Fortunately, she meets a group of people who become very protective of her, and she very unpretentiously changes their world as she changes her own. Truly uplifting.
