About These Unlucky Stars by Gillian McDunn

Annie feels out of step with her practical, organized father and brother, and like an outsider at school. Since her mother left, she has been reluctant to get close to anyone. Annie sees the world in lines and color, a way of thinking that sets her apart from the people around her.

A “Ding-Dong-Ditch” prank goes wrong, leaving Annie to make amends with Gloria, an eccentric elderly woman, and her little dog. As their unexpected friendship grows, Annie realizes Gloria may not be able to live on her own much longer. This children’s novel explores how a brief but meaningful connection can help someone feel more confident about letting others in and choosing their own path.
