description: Polly Bender has some problems. She is disliked by many of the girls she goes to school with, partly because she shows some of her American Indian heritage. Partly because she is becoming club footed. Polly is in the summer, ready to start twelfth grade, when her foot starts turning in. Polly wants desperately to play her senior year of volleyball for Haywood High School. Polly plots her own destiny and devises a contraption to push her foot back to normal. It does its job, but it is a temporary fix, that can’t hold her foot straight, so it starts again to turn in almost immediately. A good neighbor comes to her rescue and contraption is made that works. Go with Polly, as she fights some girls, bites some toes, gets hung up in a tree and plays some volleyball. It will be an enjoyable trip.
