The new novel from Jill Wolfson—an exciting, fresh voice in middle-grade fiction
Whitney has been in so many foster homes that she can give a complete rundown on the most common varieties of foster parents—from the look-on-the-bright-side types to those unfortunate examples of pure evil. But one thing she doesn't know much about is trees. This means heading for Foster Home #12 (which is all the way at the top of the map of California, where there looks to be nothing but trees) has Whitney feeling a little nervous. She is pretty sure that the middle of nowhere is going to be just one more place where a hyper, loud-mouthed kid who is messy and small for her age won't be welcome for long.
Jill Wolfson has woven together the stories of an irrepressible foster child and a deeply divided small town with incredible humor and compassion.
Customer Reviews
Probably really good!
I have not yet read this, but I’m very excited to! I loved loved loved Jill Wolfson’s other book, “What I Call Life” so I think I’ll enjoy this too, seeing as Whitney was one of my favorite characters.
Jill Wolfson: Please write a book about Amber too; I’m super curious about her! She seems so sweet and I want to know about her backstory more! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
