“Book Descriptions: Alice has a BIG family. She has four older brothers and four younger sisters, which puts Alice smack-dab, kerplunk, right in the middle. And sometimes, this middle child just wants to be alone! One day, Alice sneaks away from a family gathering. She loves skipping, singing, and twirling on her own--until she realizes she's lost and feeling an itsy, bitsy, teensy, tiny bit . . . lonely. Hurriedly retracing her steps to the arms of her mushy, marvelous family, she learns that maybe being in the middle isn't so bad after all.” DRIVE
