13 Little Blue Envelopes By Maureen Johnson
About the book: Inside little blue envelope #1 are $1,000 and instructions to buy a plane ticket. Envelope 2 contains directions to a specific London flat. The note in envelope 3 tells Ginny: Find a starving artist. Because of envelope 4, Ginny and a playwright/thief/block-about-town called Keith go to Scotland together, with somewhat disastrous—though utterly romantic—results. Everything about Ginny will change this summer, and it’s all because of the 13 little blue envelopes.
