A troublesome twelve-year-old orphan, staying with an elderly artist who needs her, remembers the only other time she was happy in a foster home, with a family that truly seemed to care about her., Abandoned when she was just one hour old, 12-year-old Hollis Woods has lived in succession of foster homes. Now taken in by Josie Cahill, a retired art teacher, Hollis is hiding a secret about her last foster family--the family she hoped would adopt her permanently. A 2003 Newbery Honor book.

Publisher's Notes
First Line: "This picture has a dollop of peanut butter on one edge, a smear of grape jelly on the other other, and an X across the whole thing. I cut it out of a magazine for homework when I was six years old."
Industry Reviews
"This touching story will leave readers pleasantly drained, satisfied with the happy ending, and eager for more about Hollis's future."
