From the back cover of "The Key and the Crest, the Unlikely Adventures of Frances Westerly: --



The year is 1961. Frances Westerly is a lonely teenage girl struggling to make her way through life in the little town of Stringville, Kansas. Taunted by schoolmates and abused by family, Frances longs to find happiness and freedom from a life constricted by a physical handicap, but is convinced it will never happen. Then her world is turned upside down by the arrival of a mysterious teacher, Mr. G.W. Merlinbaum, who challenges Frances to follow her dreams and take hold of her destiny. When she accepts that challenge, she -- along with her best and only friend, Madonna -- is taken on an adventure ride of such an UNLIKELY nature that even she finds it hard to believe. But happen it does and through her courage and fortitude Frances is changed in a way she never could have imagined...or expected.
