À propos de cet audio
Oklahoma Sequoyah Children's Book Award, Nominated
From the author of The Running Dream comes a heart-swelling historical tale of friendship, family, and the power of sisterhood to help heal the wounds of the past and step boldly into the future.
Ginny Rose and Peggy were best friends at seven, picking peaches on hot summer days. Peggy’s family owned the farm, and Ginny Rose’s were pickers, escaping the Oklahoma dust storms. That didn’t matter to them then, but now, 10 years, hard miles, and a world war later, Ginny Rose’s family is back in town and their differences feel somehow starker. Especially since Peggy’s new best friend, Lisette, is a wealthy banker’s daughter.
Still, there's no denying what all three girls have in common: families with great fissures that are about to break wide open. And a determination to not just accept things as they are anymore.
This summer, they will each make a stand. It’s a season of secrets revealed. Of daring plans to heal old wounds. Of hearts won and hearts broken. A summer when everything changes because you’re 17, and it’s time to be bold. And because it’s easier to be brave with a true friend by your side.

"Van Draanen continues to capture the souls of teenage girls, perfectly penning the hopes and fears of her protagonists. A compelling story of friendship and learning from tragedy." —SLJ
"Van Draanen’s heartfelt telling captures the close bond of two lovable heroines." --Publishers Weekly
“Readers will cheer, then weep, as the unlikely trio of Ginny Rose, Peggy, and Lisette sets out to heal a broken family. The time and place are beautifully evoked, but it’s the characters who power this story.” —Kimberly Brubaker Bradley, Newbery Honor Winner for The War that Saved My Life and Fighting Words
