Description: This book tells the heartwarming story of three little girls - Emily, Hailey, and Mary - who become best friends.  Mary has Cerebral Palsy, which resulted from a lack of oxygen to her brain at birth.  Due to poor muscle tone and the lack of physical control, Mary cannot eat, walk, or talk like other little girls.  As their friendship grows, Emily and Hailey learn about responsibility and helping children with special needs and that there really isn't anything wrong with the girl next door.
