"Eleven-year old Maggie wants to become President of the United States someday, so it's important for her to begin writing her memoirs. She's certainly got enough to write about: this year she's starting middle school, preparing for another science fair win, getting used to her mum's new job, and dealing with her makeup-obsessed sisters. On top of all that, Maggie worries about her dad's failing health and desperately wishes that she could fix his multiple sclerosis. Readers who like the bittersweet stories and smart, complicated heroines in Holly Goldberg Sloan's Counting by 7s and Robin Herrera's Hope is a Ferris Wheel will love The Meaning of Maggie."
