When Dara Cohen was little, she wasn’t just a star in her parent’s eyes, she was crowned Little Miss Maine. That was then. Now Dara’s seventeen, and she’s not so little anymore. So not little that when her classmates find out about the pageant, their jaws drop. Add to that a control-freak Mom, and a barely there Dad. Yet what hurts Dara the most is the family secret: Dara has an older sister her parents tried to erase from their lives. When a disastrously misinterpreted English project lands her in the school counselor’s office, her parents pull her out of school to save face. She realizes she has a decision to make. She can keep following the rules, and being misunderstood, or she can finally reach out to the sister she’s never met, a sister who lives on a collective goat farm in Massachusetts. Dara chooses B.
