Georgina has a problem -- she and her mother and annoying little brother Toby are living out of their car. Her mom is trying to earn money to get them back into an apartment, but in the mean time, things are hard, they are stressed and angry and hungry and sad. She sees a poster offering a $500 reward for a lost dog and hatches a plan to create a similar opportunity. Very good on the subject of homelessness, including the night terrors of squatting in an abandoned building and the surprisingly kind figures one can meet on the street. Also great on the moral dilemmas of the whole idea. Pretty consequence lite as those things go, but on the whole, a good story. ( )

This book was recommended by 11-yo Kensington. I looked it up and an ebook just happened to be available so I read it this afternoon.

Keep a box of tissues handy. The buildup of emotion as Georgina struggled with her guilt and regret had me literally sobbing through Chapter 20. ( )
