The Perfect Place

(4) 4-6 Left in the care of their ill-reputed great-aunt Grace while their mother searches for their wayward father, asthmatic sixth grader Treasure and her seven-year-old sister, Tiffany, find that the home they've been waiting for isn't anything like they expected. Harris crafts a well-paced intergenerational tale with a diverse cast of characters, though her physical descriptions border on clichéd.
