Plot Summary
Feeling like a social outcast at school, Charlene begs her grandmother for money to buy an expensive fur coat none of the other girls have. The coat indeed makes Charlene the envy of her friends, but, unlike other status symbols, it talks (it's a live animal), and begins to make demands that cause Charlene to become alienated from her family and friends, especially her best friend Mindy.
