Description
Maddie is thrilled that her parents have connected their computer to the Internet. Now she can surf the net for new friends. Her time is very restricted by her parents and by having to share with her brothers. She finds a way around that by going down late at night.
But Maddie's family are worried because they know she is planning to meet a boy from among her cyber pals. Only Granny will understand and help her deal with finding a balance between exploring the world and staying safe.
