Illustrated by
Andrew Glass.
Linked free verse poems follow a young girl as her anger over her father's abandonment of his family gradually subsides and she begins to accept her mother's new husband. An inveterate sketcher, Anne Marie's art provides an important outlet; her twin sister also helps her gain perspective. Paintings, line drawings, and photographic collages illustrate these emotionally honest poems.
