Description of this Textbook
Award-winning author Adrian Fogelin follows up her critically acclaimed novel CROSSING JORDAN with the story of a young girl's trials and triumphs as she tries to find a home. With warmth and humor, Fogelin has created a memorable character in Anna, who must deal with the loss of her family and adjust to living in a foster home. Feeling abandoned and alone, Anna turns to her closest companion, her explorer journal. With the help of a scrawny new friend named Eb, Anna discovers a sense of belonging...and her own place in the world.

Awards & Reviews
| NZ Review |
Anna has inner pluck and outer charm: she's been through a lot, but knows what needs to be done. Evocative descriptions bubble up from a deep reality...And places are found, if not the ones both kids thought they wanted. |
