The Charming Bracelet

Alexandria Evangeline Malouff has 27 letters in her name. She has been to the principal’s office for 27 different stupid reasons this year. Her mom was 27 when she dropped Lexie and her younger brother, Anthony, off at their grandparents’ house and disappeared. Lexie considers 27 her number, but not her lucky number. When Lexie finds a silver charm bracelet in the park, she isn’t surprised there are 27 charms on it. There are many surprises in her future, though, that begin when Lexie finds the bracelet’s owner, an elderly lady named Miss Em. As Miss Em shares the stories of the charms, Lexie comes to terms with many things in her own life and discovers that 27 might just be her lucky number after all.
