Omschrijving

New York Times bestselling author Lynda Mullaly Hunt's moving story of a boy struggling to rebuild his life after a family tragedy and his own big mistakes

Peter blames himself for not saving his brother, Russ. After all, if the roles had been reversed, Russ would have figured out a way to keep him alive. His sadness and anger about his family falling apart, as well as his guilt, make Peter lash out--and ultimately break the law. When he finds himself in front of a judge and sent to a juvenile rehabilitation "camp," Peter figures it will be all about punishment. But at the program, he's handed some tools to help restore old wooden boats, as well as tools to understand himself. Under the direction of Bud, a therapist and boat builder, Peter and five other juvenile offenders must work together. The kids are wary at first--arguing over everything, wondering who's the most dangerous, and who committed the stupidest crime. With time and connection, the kids become protective of each other and Peter finds the rhythm of working on boats helps him breathe easier. Nicknamed "Shakespeare" because of his love for words, Peter realizes he's now living out a metaphor; just like the most dilapidated boat that's unable to float, he too--as well as his family--can be rebuilt.

Lynda Mullaly Hunt deploys her trademark insight on the map it takes to heal from trauma, in this memorable story about a boy who learns he can still stand even as his foundation shifts.
