Truth Without the Trimmings #5

Part of Dish

Author Diane Muldrow On Tour
Illustrated by Barbara Pollack
The holidays are here, and Molly, Amanda, Shawn, Peichi, and Natasha have never been busier.

No one knows why Amanda and Natasha are acting so strangely, but the truth must come out—including the big secret that Natasha has been hiding for years.
