Why Get This Book

For the young teen girl going through a big move, a missing parent, or a hard family change. Fourteen-year-old Alex goes to Indiana to live with her grandparents. She struggles with new friendships, her stern grandfather, and missing her mother. It's a gentle, honest story about forgiveness and family from Tommy Nelson. Alex's questions about loss and forgiveness are ones many kids carry quietly, and the story gives families a gentle way to talk about them. Honest note: it's written for young teens, so older readers may think it is simple. Next step: read Psalm 34:18 and remember that the Lord is close to the brokenhearted.
