This book by Caroline B. Cooney was a good, thought provoking read. It was about a family who is separated by divorce. One brother decides to go live with his father, but comes back home unexpectedly with none of his belongings. Something happened while he was gone, but he won't talk about why he is back. What happened to him? Did the father send him back? Or did he decide to come back all on his own? You will have to read to find out the answers to these questions.
This was a good book. It was easy to read, but the subject matter may be better suited for 7th or 8th graders or above. The main character must make some deep, thought provoking decisions regarding whether she will honor her father or treat him with the level of respect he gives to her.
