80's Children's book Weekly reader
I am looking for an old children's book I owned. It's about a girl whose best friend is a boy- for about the first chapter. They like playing Monopoly all day in the house when it's rainy. But over the summer he goes off, I think to camp, and starts to make other friends. Other boys. She is left feeling alone. As the book goes on she becomes friends with a girl everyone thinks is a little strange. The girl has long hair that is always combed down covering her face. A small part near her eye allows her to see and no one can remember what her face looks like. It ends up that she is covering up freckles -and no this book is not freckle juice.
My parents had me enrolled in a Weekly Reader book club. I was signed up to receive two books every month I think, and through this service. I got such classics as KLUTZ, My side of the Mountian, The Comeback Dog and THe Hot and Cold Summer. This book is a contemporary, and probably came through that book club.
