Finding Mary Alice by Elizabeth P. Smith tells the story of Mary Alice MacGyver, a nine-year-old girl who finds herself in over her head when Mrs. Reed asks her to look out for her grandson, Andrew, at school. What begins as an uncomfortable responsibility turns into a lasting friendship that changes Mary Alice's outlook on life forever.

Experience Mary Alice's journey as she navigates from one adventure to another, living on a small farm in Upstate New York.
