Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Sunny

The way this book is written you feel like the author is really talking to you. The main character is Salamanca Tree Hiddle. Her mom has left he without the slightest reason why. Now Sal is traveling across the country, with her grandparents along the route her mom took. While traveling she tells the story of Phoebe Winterbottom, whose neighbor Margaret and Sal's dad befriend each other after the mom's disappearance. This story is of how Sal accepts the fact of her mom leaving and doesn't judge Margaret or anyone else by appearance. "Don't judge a man until you've walked two moons in his moccasins." This is a quote from the book, summarizing the lesson she's learned.
