Finding Someplace

(3) 4-6 Plenty of local texture adds to the veracity of this story about the Boone Family, who waits out Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans, is rescued, and begins a new life in New Jersey. The narrative focuses on thirteen-year-old Reesie Boone, who dreams of fashion school, through the turmoil. Patrick's novel is a true-to-life portrait of one family's post-disaster recovery.
