No Place Like Home | James Bird

1 post | 1 read

A middle-grade novel by James Bird about homelessness and hope. When home is a car, life is unpredictable. School, friends, and three meals a day aren't guaranteed. Not every town has a shelter where a family can sleep for a night or two, and places with parking lots don't welcome overnight stays. Opin, his brother Emjay, and their mother are trying to get to Los Angeles, where they hope an uncle and a new life are waiting. Emjay has taken to disappearing for days, slowing down the family's progress and adding to their worry. Then Opin finds a stray dog who needs him as much as he needs her, and his longing for a stable home intensifies, as his brother's reckless ways hit a new high. Opin makes a new friend in the shelter, but shelters don’t allow dogs... Will anything other than a real home ever be enough?

I finished this middle grade book about homelessness and family yesterday evening during some hammock reading time with Luthien. It was straightforward about many of the difficulties and focused specifically on a Native American family. Yet, in the end, it worked out well with a lot of hope for a better future, honestly more than I expected from all of the story leading up to that point.
