Blurb:
When a hardscrabble Southwest Philadelphia street kid and a wealthy Main Line debutante cross paths in the summer of 1983, and notice their physical resemblance to each other, they hatch a daring plan: to switch identities for the summer. Each lives the life of the other, far from the one she knows. But when the summer ends, will their friendship end, too?
