Something Like Home by Andrea Beatriz Arango (Novel in Verse Contemporary)
Something Like Home by Andrea Beatriz Arango
Laura is confused. She thought she was doing the right thing - but it turns out that where she has ended up is not at all where she thought she would be. Living with her aunt that she doesn't even know, is not her idea of a solution. When will she be able to go back with her parents? She doesn't want to settle in, because this new place is not home.
Recommended for grades 6 and up.
