Description: |
|
In many ways, Carrie Parker is like any other eight-year-old--playing make-believe, dreading school, dreaming of faraway places. but even her imaginative mind can't shut out the realities of her impoverished North Carolina home or help her protect her younger sister, Emma.
By turns achingly naive and utterly pragmatic, Carrie has been shaped by the los of her beloved daddy and by a drunken stepfather and her emotionally absent mother. Charting an astonishing course of survival for herself and Emma, she hopes to transform their lives into one more closely resembling the storybooks she treasures.
But after ths siters' plan to run away from home unravels, their world takes a shocking turn--and one shattering moment ultimately reveals a truth that leaves everyone reeling.
This book is in PERFECT condition and contains a readers guide in the back. |
