Tallahassee Higgins

Informationen zum Autor Mary Downing Hahn's many acclaimed novels include such beloved ghost stories as Wait Till Helen Comes, Deep and Dark and Dangerous, and Took. A former librarian, she has received more than fifty child-voted state awards for her work. She lives in Columbia, Maryland, with a cat named Nixi. Klappentext Tallahassee was dumped off to live with Aunt Thelma-and her 'house rules.' It was the worst. Liz, her mother, promised to get her out of there as soon as she got settled in California. But it was Tallahassee, not Liz, who got settled...in a place where finding out about her mother's past helped her figure out her own future. Zusammenfassung “Out of sight! out of mind.” That’s what Tallahassee Higgins’s mother! Liz! always says about her ex-boyfriends. But now that Tallahassee has been sent to live with her aunt and uncle in Maryland so Liz can start a movie career in California! the words are taking on new meaning. Aunt Thelma says that Liz is gone for good! but Talley is sure her mother will come for her. So who cares if mean Aunt Thelma hates her! if she’s failing sixth grade! or if the kids at school think she’s a liar? It’s not like she’s staying in Maryland forever. Unless Aunt Thelma is right and Liz isn’t coming back.
