When Jamie saw him throw the baby, saw Van throw the little baby, saw Van throw his little sister Nin, then they moved. So begins one of the most compelling novels for young readers published in recent memory. It is a story of survival—how nine-year-old Jamie, his mother, and his baby sister Nin leave an abusive situation, move to a small trailer in the woods, and slowly learn how to trust the people around them—and each other.
