Survival Strategies of the Almost Brave
by Jen White -- After their mother dies, Liberty and her little sister
are reunited with their father, who left them when Liberty was a
preschooler. When he abandons them at a truck stop in the middle of the
desert, Liberty knows that it's up to her to take care of her sister and
get the two of them to safety. Liberty loves to learn about the ways
animals adapt in order to survive. Maybe she will find some survival
strategies of her own.
This is a good, solid read. The two
sisters are believable characters and the setting is also strong. The
episodic plot is fast-paced. Readers who enjoy books like
Homecoming and
Waiting for Normal should take a look at this one.
(Reviewed from a copy borrowed through my library system.)
I loved Waiting for Normal. I have to get this one.
