Something is very wrong with Corinne. She doesn't speak to anyone. She doesn't look anyone in the eye. She doesn't smile. Her best friend, Annie, has tried everything she can to help Corinne, but nothing seems to work. So Annie starts to write letters to Corinne. She tells her that no matter what has happened, they will always be best friends. Annie also tells Corinne that sometimes problems might be too big for a kid to handle alone. That it's important to find someone who can help—someone who wants to help. But Corinne has to take the first step—and tell somebody.
