Something is wrong with Beanie Kingsley's mother: something the doctors can't figure out. Beanie has to pitch in with many chores and worries she might have to care for both her younger sibling and her only parent, given their rural location in a small town lacking social services. Her newfound reliance on friends shows her just who is a good friend and who lacks in Alice Mead's moving story of chronic illness Madame Squidley And Beanie.
