Award-winning and best-selling author Lois Lowry explores issues surrounding adoption in this poignant young adult novel.
Natalie Armstrong has everything: she’s smart and beautiful, has the perfect boyfriend, early acceptance to college, and a loving family. But the summer she turns seventeen, her search for identity leads her to finally ask some unanswered questions: Who are her biological parents and why did they give her up when she was born?
These questions take her on a journey from the deep woods of Maine to the streets of New York City, from the pages of old phone books and a tattered yearbook photo to the realization that she might actually meet her biological mother face-to-face.
