Pirouette (2013)
“She was planning to spend the day at the local pool and was on her way to the bus stop, but swimming was the last thing on her mind. Instead, she was thinking about Hannah’s dad and the fascinating fact that he was a publisher. She imagined meeting him. They’d talk about books and writing, and he’d tell her all about publishing and the famous authors he’d met and worked with. Maybe she’d have a chance to meet them too … In the photos Hannah had shown her the night before, the whole Segal family looked warm and good-humored. Brown-skinned Adam seemed cheeky and funny and had a wiry, athletic build. Hannah’s mom Vanessa was small and neat, and often had a kind of half-smile on her face. And Manfred … Manfred looked like the kind of dad you’d want to have. He was a large man, his smile open and friendly, and he appeared to have an insatiable appetite not only for food but for life.
What would her life have been like if she’d had Manfred for a dad?
