A stunning accomplishment. This story pierces the heart. Chicago Sun-Times
RUN RUN RUN. Thats what twelve-year-old Annie loves to do. When shes barefoot and running, she can hear her heart beatingthump-THUMP, thump-THUMP.
Its a rhythm that makes sense in a year when everythings shifting: Her mother is pregnant, her grandfather is forgetful, and her best friend, Max, is always moody. Everything changes over time, just like the apple Annies been assigned to draw a hundred times.
Newbery Medal winner Sharon Creech masterfully weaves this tender and intuitive story told in free verse about a young girlbeginning to understand the many rhythms of life, and howshe fits within them.
