Twelve-year-old Molly Mahoney is in the middle of everything. Sheâs in the middle of her parentâs impending divorce. Sheâs in the middle of her rebellious older sister and her lazy younger sister. Sheâs in the middle of her class, ranked at exactly 143 out of 286. Even her name (first and last!) places her right in the middle of the alphabet. And after a morning where her parents forget to drive her to school, and the field trip she was supposed to be on leaves without her, Molly decides itâs time to figure out how she can finally be in the spotlightâand stop being invisible.
But her new, outlandish ways put her in a different middle altogether.

So when Molly has to choose between going to the yearâs biggest party with her new pals, or participating in the Muscular Dystrophy Walk with Kellan, sheâs stuck in the middle once again. Can Molly reconcile the Old Molly with New Mollyâand figure out the best way to make her mark?
