Set in the fishing town of Gloucester, Massachusetts during the 1921-1922 school year, The Marvelous Journals of Miss Virginia Pettingill features the private writings of a short, bespectacled, precocious seventh grader who has the ability of Sight which she must keep secret from everyone except her best friend. Encouraged to be a tomboy by her sportsman doctor father, and a proper young lady by her suffragette mother, she writes about her life, her town, her times, and the things she "sees."
