Worlds MURPHY JILL r -T' $13.95 IBRARY Eleven-year-old Susan Hunter has never known her father, because her mother left him when Susan was still a baby. Now, on the eve of Father's Day, Susan's mother finally breaks her silence on the subject and reveals why she left him so long ago. But this isn't enough for Susan, who comes up with a dar- ing plan to find her father. It is a search that will involve a television series called Worlds Apart and will lead to a dramatic nighttime trip to London's theater district. It is a quest so secret that not even her best friend Zoe can know about it; a quest Susan desperately hopes will actually lead to her father. What she finally discovers about him beyond anything she could have is imagined. This is the heartwarming story of a young girl's efforts to reunite her family and to establish her own identity, told with warmth, humor and drama. Jill Murphy is the author/artist of the popular picture books All in One Piece and Five Minutes' Peace. Illustration © 1989byTudorHumphries jR 1 P A 11 1^ Ill FIC MUR Murphy, Jill.
