Every tween reader’s favorite procrastinator is back . . . in paperback!
It isn’t as though Moxy isn’t grateful for her Christmas presents. She is. She’s just not thrilled that she has to write a thank-you note for each one by tomorrow . . . or she will not be allowed to fly to Hollywood to attend a starstudded
Hollywood bash with the father she hasn’t seen in three years. And writing thank-you notes is not something that a world-class Creative Type relishes doing. But it is more than writing thank-you notes that finally prevents Moxy from taking her trip. When her father cancels at the last minute, Moxy is forced to deal with the reality of a situation she doesn’t want to accept, and can’t change. But, not surprisingly, she rises to the occasion brilliantly.

Moxy Maxwell Does Not Love Writing Thank-you Notes
It was the day after Christmas and Moxy Maxwell had a List of 13 Things to Do Before Tomorrow. Tomorrow she and her twin brother, Mark, were flying to Hollywood to spend the last week of vacation with their father.
Moxy had been looking forward to this trip for, as she put it, "ages and ages"--ever since her mother called her dad and toldhim that this year he had to take the twins for the last part of Christmas vacation.
Mark and Moxy's father's name was Rock Hunter, and he was a Big Mover and Shaker out in Hollywood. But Moxy and Mark hadn't seen him for almost three years. Two years ago he canceled their Christmas visit at the last minute because he had to fly to the Dead Sea to help a Major Star who was having a breakdown on the set of a made-for-TV movie called Noah's Wife: The Untold Story. And last year he was so busy establishing himself in his new career as a Big Mover and Shaker in Hollywood that he had forgotten about Christmas altogether. But this year he was finally a Big Man Behind the Scenes out there.
"Behind the scenes is where the real action is" was what he'd told Moxy when she had asked why she'd never seen his picture in People magazine or Us Weekly magazine or Star magazine or any magazine.
