YA
After her mother's death and a pregnancy at twelve, China Cup Cameron is now thrown the worst tragedy imaginable: the sudden death of her two-year-old daughter. China responds by shutting down emotionally--a credible response to grief that unfortunately distances the reader as well. Nevertheless, readers will be drawn in by the portraits of strong individuals working hard to re-shape their lives.
