Beth Manning's older sister, Janna, is perfect. At least that's how it seems to Beth. More than anything else, Beth wishes for something to make her as special as Janna. Then, after her 14th birthday, Beth gets her wish in a terrible way: she develops leukemia. Eventually, Beth is able to show her sister and herself that perfection isn't nearly as important as love.
