Now that she's decided to become a journalist, life's questions ought to be pretty easy to answer, Anastasia thinks. A journalist, after all, simply responds to the who, what, when, where, and why of every situation. But why are Daphne Bellingham's parents getting a divorce? Is it Daphne's fault? And why-WHY-is Anastasia the most physically uncoordinated person ever to set foot in a junior high gym? Once again Lois Lowry's wonderful and irrepressible Anastasia has the answers.
