| Plot Summary of Out Of The Blue |
|---|
"When 12-year-old Megan's mother suddenly changes from a hyper-organized, fast-moving person to a calm, slow person who sings soppy songs, Megan knows something's up. Megan's mother has been contacted by a daughter that she gave up for adoption nearly twenty five years ago – a daughter Megan didn't even know existed. Twenty four year old Natalie is nice and fun, and getting married. And she wants to get to know her biological family. Megan is a little resistant at first, but she comes to accept Natalie, and to get over her jealousy at her mother's new affection toward her long lost daughter. At the same time, Megan begins to notice that she's growing up."
