When Belle Prater disappears, her boy Woodrow comes to live with his grandparents in Coal Station, Virginia. Woodrows cousin Gypsy lives next door and tries to find out about his mothers disappearance. As the cousins spend time together, they find they have much in common and become best friends during their sixth-grade year. But Gypsy, the town beauty, has hidden secrets of her own and wonders how Woodrow accepts his mothers disappearance when she cant get over her fathers death. That's when Woodrow tells Gypsy the truth about his mother.
Review:
"In part a cautionary tale about the danger of trusting in appearances, this is also a story about vexing challenges that the suffering of adults poses for children who are forming their own identities. The 12-year-old cousins develop an intimacy that goes far beyond a conspiracy between two only children, and their relationships within their extended family have real depth and texture."
Susanne M. Swanson, Five Owls, September/October 1996
Review:"It takes a writer of real lyricism and energy to tell a good young-adult story, and Ruth White is one....an admirable, stirring book."
Meg Wolitzer, New York Times Book Review, 10/27/1996
