Great Titles!

Miracle on 49th Street by Mike Lupica.  I just read this and it was uplifting and wonderful. You will love the main character and her best friend.  I have not yet read a book by this author that I did not like.  This one involves a spunky girl whose mother tells her before she dies that her father is one of the best Celtics basketball players of all time.
