This sweet contemporary story about poetry, family, and determining your own destiny follows eleven-year-old Emily Elizabeth Davis, who has never met her father. When a poetry book with his name disappears, Emily and her friends embark on a search throughout Berkeley, California. Despite her mother's insistence that she is destined to be a poet, Emily secretly connects with romance writer Danielle Steel. The narrative beautifully blends themes of literary admiration, self-discovery, and youthful determination, culminating in a satisfying resolution.
