The Dollar Kids - Jennifer Richard Jacobson

Descriere The Dollar Kids - Jennifer Richard Jacobson

\nA skillfully written and heartfelt novel about a family making a new home, recovering from grief, and the town full of people who join them on their journey. -- School Library Journal (starred review) \nTwelve-year-old Lowen Grover, a budding comic-book artist, is still reeling from the shooting death of his friend Abe when he stumbles across an article about a former mill town giving away homes for just one dollar. It not only seems like the perfect escape from the city and all of the awful memories associated with it, but an opportunity for his mum to run her very own business. But is the Dollar Program too good to be true? The homes are in horrible shape, and the locals are less than welcoming. Will the Grovers find they've traded one set of problems for another? From the author of Small as an Elephant and Paper Things comes a heart-tugging novel about guilt and grief, family and friendship, and, above all, community.\n
