Raised in a fundamentalist sect, 15-year-old Mary Fred Anderson has never watched TV, been to a supermarket, or read anything beyond the inscrutable dogma of the prophet Fred. When her parents are jailed, Mary Fred is put into foster care in a Washington, D.C. suburb. As she struggles to understand the modern world, Mary Fred begins to positively influence her troubled housemates.
