She calls herself Maybe. Thrown out by her abusive mom, she struggles to survive on the streets of New York with other homeless teens who become a family in the asphalt jungle. WINNER OF THE AMERICAN LIBRARY ASSOCIATION'S:
And BEST BOOK FOR RELUCTANT READERS "A powerful and disturbing look at the downward spiral of despair that remains too common for too many teens." - School Library Journal "Strasser's vibrant prose plunges young readers into Maybe's hard life, all without the use of profanity. A very welcome addition to the slice-of-life genre in YA literature that may help change some real lives." - Kirkus "A story about people that we pretend don't exist; Strasser makes us know them." - Booklist (Dec.) |
