The specificity in which Chapman narrates Kaede's journey in Japan is particularly satisfying. An insightful, compassionate, and honest look at a young boy's search for identity and home after the death of his mother.\"―Veera Hiranandani, author of Newbery Honor novel The Night Diary\n\nSometimes, home isn’t where you expect to find it.\n\nAfter losing his mom in a fatal car crash, Kaede Hirano--now living with a grandfather who is more stranger than family--developed anger issues and spent his last year of middle school acting out.\n\nBest-friendless and critically in danger repeating the seventh grade, Kaede is given a summer assignment: write an essay about what home means to him, which will be even tougher now that he's on his way to Japan to reconnect with his estranged father and older half-brother. Still, if there's a chance Kaede can finally build a new family from an old one, he's willing to try. But building new relationships isn’t as easy as destroying his old ones, and one last desperate act will change the way Kaede sees everyone--including himself.\n\nThis is a book about what home means to us―and that there are many different correct answers.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1250166799\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1250166799.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Chapman, Elsie\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Former library book with the usual stamps, stickers and labels.
