"Brings fresh perspective to the guilt and anger and caring that surround the mentally disabled. All the characters . . . are drawn with warmth but no patronizing reverence." --Booklist, Starred Review
Set in the South in the late 1950s, this coming-of-age novel about the importance of family and home explores a twelve-year-old girl's struggle with grief, navigating life with her developmentally disabled parents, and the changing world around her.
