(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Sarah Hokanson. Twelve-year-old Homer decides to unravel the mystery of why his mother won't talk about his long-dead father--but first he helps his new friend shadow a suspicious-looking guy disguised as an old man. The mysteries will draw readers, but it's Homer's transformation from quiet, obedient child to outspoken, daring young man that offers the most intrigue in this affecting novel.
