Omschrijving

In her own singularly beautiful style, Newbery Medal winner Sharon Creech intricately weaves together two tales, one funny, one bittersweet, to create a heartwarming, compelling, and utterly moving story of love, loss, and the complexity of human emotion.

Thirteen-year-old Salamanca Tree Hiddle, proud of her country roots and the "Indian-ness in her blood," travels from Ohio to Idaho with her eccentric grandparents. Along the way, she tells them of the story of Phoebe Winterbottom, who received mysterious messages, who met a "potential lunatic," and whose mother disappeared.

As Sal entertains her grandparents with Phoebe's outrageous story, her own story begins to unfold--the story of a thirteen-year-old girl whose only wish is to be reunited with her missing mother.

But as the miles roll by and the stories intertwine, what will Sal discover about Phoebe, her mother, and herself?

A Cross-Country Journey: Join Sal on a trip from Ohio to Idaho, retracing her mother's last route and hoping to bring her home.
Unforgettable Grandparents: Travel with Sal's eccentric and loving grandparents, whose quirky wisdom and deep love guide her on the long road west.
Friendship and Family Secrets: Unravel the mystery of Sal's friend Phoebe, whose own mother has vanished after receiving a series of strange, anonymous messages.
A Newbery Medal Classic: Discover the timeless, award-winning novel that has touched the hearts of readers for generations, exploring life, loss, and the healing power of stories.
