 Just
when her three best friends vow to give up boys, Anastasia Krupnik
begins a secret correspondence with her ideal man, carefully selected
from the personals column in her father's magazine. "SWM, 28,
boyish charm, inherited wealth, looking for tall young woman, nonsmoker,
to share Caribbean vacations, reruns of Casablanca, and romance."
Sure, Anastasia is only thirteen, but a difference in age is a small
obstacle when two people are on the same wave length. And she -
a tall, young movie buff who hates smoking - is certain that SWM
(a.k.a. single white male) is on her wave length. Heaven knows,
she is definitely ready for romance.
When she actually receives a reply from her SWM, it is the start
of another hilarious and ever original episode in the eventful life
of our heroine extraordinaire, the outspoken, irresistible Anastasia
Krupnik.
"Anastasia
herself is at her best here: headstrong, inventive, endearing, and
irrepressible, though not above learning from her mistakes."
