This book details sisters', Meg and Molly, relationship. Molly is beautiful and popular, while Meg is shy and sees herself as plain looking. One night everything changes when Molly is rushed to hospital. The book then follows the family's life as Molly's condition worsens and she eventually dies. Meg's friendship with her neighbours sustains her, especially the birth of Ben and Maria's baby. Some aspects of the book betrays its age, but the timeless message more than compensates.
