A heartwarming coming-of-age book for girls 9 to 13 who love the Anne and Emily books of L. M. Montgomery. A winter storm means that Sam Park is about to get her biggest wish, to have a real family Christmas. Trees are down. The power is out. But not even a storm can cancel Christmas for the Star family. There are gifts under the tree. Everyone sings carols. Soon, they'll gather for the big turkey dinner with all the trimmings. To Sam, it's all wonderful. Magical. It fills her heart with happiness. Yet with all the joy of the Holiday season, she also has a dark secret, one she can't possibly tell anyone, not even her two best friends. Especially not them. Even though this secret could ruin everything. Then, all too soon, Christmas is over and Sam's worst fears are coming true... Rules for Flying is a book about being true to yourself, standing up to your fears and following your heart's fondest desire.

Autorenporträt
Jacquelyn Johnson writes sweet contemporary romances with humor and plenty of banter for readers who like heroes who are possibly a bit misguided but truly heroic, feisty heroines who you'll want as friends and happy endings. She's also the author of the Morley Star series of realistic novels for girls ages 10 to 13 and a dozen or so books about dogs, cats and assorted other pets and animals for middle school readers. When not writing or avoiding cooking and housework, she likes to drive around admiring other people's gardens or lounge on her verandah with a refreshing glass of something and a good book. She lives in an old farmhouse that will probably never be finished (though she lives in hope) near the ocean.
