Lizzie St. Claire wants to be invisible. Forced to move out of her home, she and her mom now live in a transitional housing shelter, Good Hope, until they can get back on their feet.
Lizzie just wants to keep her head down at Good Hope and her new school, so she doesn't have to admit the real reason she and her mom lost everything.
But when Lizzie finds herself at the nearby Birchwood Stables, some new friends--along with the arrival of a frightened pony named Fire--help Lizzie to open up and accept help from those around her, even if it means she'll have more to lose if things change again.
- A Moving Horse Story: At Birchwood Stables, Lizzie forms a powerful, instant bond with Fire, a frightened pony who feels just as lost and alone as she does.
- A Poignant Coming-of-Age Novel: Forced to live in a shelter and start a new school, Lizzie must learn to navigate her family's secret shame and find the courage to let people in.
- Themes of Hope and Resilience: Even after losing everything, Lizzie discovers that true strength comes from accepting help, speaking up, and finding a new place to call home.
- Navigating Difficult Topics: This heartfelt story gently explores the complex emotions of having a parent in jail and the reality of experiencing homelessness as a child.
