In "Heart to Heart," the eleventh book in the popular Madison Finn series, seventh grader Madison finds herself in a whirlwind of pre-holiday drama. She's simultaneously thrilled and perplexed by a secret admirer sending her mysterious messages, while also navigating social challenges as some chorus friends give her the cold shoulder. Adding to her worries, her divorced parents' relationship seems to be in a "deep freeze." Madison seeks solace and purpose by volunteering at a local nursing home, hoping to spread some holiday cheer and perhaps find a way to mend the rifts in her own life. This chapter book offers a relatable look at middle school friendships, crushes, and family dynamics, all through Madison's personal computer "files" or diary entries.
Just when Madison thinks she's loveless, she gets a strange red envelope and an e-mailbox filled with messages. Boy by boy, she tries to figure out the identity of her secret admirer.
