Reach for this book when your child starts expressing a sense of restlessness with their surroundings or begins to wonder if their life is too small compared to the wide world. It is an ideal choice for the child who feels like an outsider in their own community or who is beginning to crave independence and adventure beyond the family circle. Set in the 1970s in a small Appalachian town, the story follows twelve-year-old Chili Sue Sparks as she dreams of escaping her predictable life. Through her encounters with a sophisticated visitor and her own internal discoveries, she learns that while the world is vast and exciting, there is a different kind of magic in the roots we plant and the people who truly know us. It is a gentle, historical coming of age story that validates the urge to leave while celebrating the value of home.
