Book #65 -- E. M. Crane, Skin Deep, 270 pages.
Andrea Anderson is a nobody. She's worked very hard to blend in to the point that she's barely noticed in the school hallways, and that's pretty much the way she likes it, until one day she accepts a job assisting her recluse artist neighbour who is battling cancer. Mrs. Menapace, with her Saint Bernard and her herb garden and her pottery, is very different from the people Andrea has known. But it will take an eccentric dying woman to teach Andrea how to live.
