Our children see how tough the world is around them and they are usually don't talk about it. This book changes that. Ten-year old Brittany Dodson has a hard time coping when she suddenly finds herself and her mother homeless and sleeping under a bridge along the Fox River in Aurora, Illinois. Her mother lost her job and her father, who was called into active duty while serving in the Air Force Reserves, is missing when his plane is shot down over Iraq. She is horrified when she is forced to work with classmates on a social studies project in which they are going to look for people who have lost their homes because of the economy and they want to meet at her house! When Billy, the class bully, takes a disliking to her and discovers her secret, she doesn't know what will happen. Will he tell her class that he discovered her sleeping under the bridge? Will they find her father? Why does Billy dislike her so much? Find out how Brittany's class helps her through the ministry of Habitat for Humanity and a few caring people. Now you can break the barrier of not talking about real issues your child sees and how much it bothers them. With the chapter questions that go with each chapter to help your child in an age appropriate way, they can feel safe and empowered to make a positive impact by their actions. Plus, it will keep the dialog flowing to talk about other things they see and don't like. Enjoy getting closer to your children by laying the framework down now.
