Sixteen-year-old Pippa Greene never goes anywhere without her camera. She and her best friend/supermodel-in-training Dace long ago mapped out their life plan: Pippa will be the noted fashion photographer and Dace the cover girl. But since last spring, things have changed for Pippa — and her junior year at Spalding High proves to have its own set of challenges. Not only is Vantage Point, the statewide photography competition, in three weeks, but her mandatory volunteer placement lands her at St. Christopher's Hospital, a place Pippa never wished to revisit.
