Family is family, no matter what it looks like. Readers will cheer for this pitch-perfect story, just right for fans of such books as The Great Gilly Hopkins and Fish in a Tree.
For as long as Robinson Hart can remember, it´s just been her and Grandpa. He taught her about cars, baseball, and everything else worth knowing. But Grandpa´s memory has been getting bad--so bad that he sometimes can´t even remember Robbie´s name.
She´s sure that she´s making things worse by getting in trouble at school, but she can´t resist using her fists when bullies like Alex Carter make fun of her for not having a mom.
Now she´s stuck in group guidance--and to make things even worse, Alex Carter is there too. There´s no way Robbie´s going to open up about her life to some therapy group, especially not with Alex in the room. Besides, if she told anyone how forgetful Grandpa´s been getting lately, they´d take her away from him. He´s the only family she has--and it´s up to her to keep them together, no matter what.
