YA
Babysitter Danielle's five-year-old charge, Humphrey, is killed in a hit-and-run accident on her watch. The driver is an undocumented immigrant, and Danielle gets dragged into a fierce debate about illegal immigration. This story of love and loss is deepened by the protagonist's inspiring development from someone afraid of conflict into someone who stands up for what she believes is right.
