This is the BEST book that I ever read. It is about a girl who plays the "Glad Game". After her Mom and Dad die she is sent to her rich aunt who is not always happy. Then she meets the man that is the mystery of the block and she meets him and becomes one of his best friend. Find out what happened to Pollyanna that may mess her life up for ever. And get to the next book after this called Pollyanna Grows Up. May 18, 2005
