As if that\'s not bad enough, Marigold\'s mom takes on a new job--teaching drama at Marigold\'s school Now all the kids know instantly just how weird her mom is, and Marigold\'s worried she\'ll never be able to have a friendship that can survive her mother..
Now Marigold\'s starting a new school, missing her best friend like crazy, and trying to fit in all over again in the shadow of a mom who\'s famous for all the wrong reasons.
In fact, Marigold\'s mom\'s performances caused such a ruckus in their last town that the two of them, along with Marigold\'s little sister, have just had to move.
Things like wrapping herself in saran wrap for a piece on plastic surgery, or inviting people over in the middle of the night to videotape her sleeping.
