Welcome to Anastasia's world in the first book of the Anastasia series! To Anastasia, being ten is very confusing. She has an awful teacher who doesn't like her non-rhyming poetry. Washburn Cummings, a "very" interesting boy, doesn't even know she's alive. And her parents insist that she visit her grandmother, who can't even remember Anastasia's name. On top of that, they're going to have a baby--at their age! To get back at them, she just might have to do something terrible.
