(4) 4-6 Sixth grader Lorelei begins a journal addressed to her dead cat, Mud. Her entries focus on her parents' fights as well as her own friendship troubles, anxieties about the school play, and crush on a classmate. The chronicle of her parents' divorce is poignant but manages to sound, by turns, older and younger than Lorelei's "11 1/4 years."
