It is the first ever Kentucky seventh-grade exchange program, and two polar opposites have been chosen to participate. Reminded to remain impartial and not judgmental, the girls will take turns leaving their homes to live and attend classes with the other. They are to record their observations in a journal.

Ivy June Mosley comes from a poor tightly-knit Appalachian community. She lives with her grandparents in a primitive mountain home with 		no plumbing and no phone. Her grandfather barely ekes out a living as a coal miner. Catherine Combs lives with her loving upper-middle-class parents in a fancy house complete with indoor pool, in bustling Lexington. Catherine attends a private all-girl school and has her own cell phone.

They should have nothing in common. But as they learn to live with their differences, they find that they are far more alike than they are
