Description
A heart-wrenching middle grade debut that considers homelessness from one girls perspective and explores deep truths about the resounding impact of empathy. Perfect for fans of One for the Murphys and Paper Things.
Fifth grade can be tough for anyone. There are cliques and mean kids and homework and surprise math tests. But after tragedy strikes her family, almost-eleven-year-old Maya has a painful secret that makes many days feel nearly impossible.
And today might be Mayas toughest yet. Her family is on edge, she needs to travel alone across the city, a bully is out to get her, and Maya has to face this winters biggest rainstorm without a coat or an umbrella.
But even on the rainiest days, theres hope that the sun will come out soon.
Emotional and compassionate, Shelter looks at homelessness through one girls eyes and explores the power of empathy, friendship, and love.
