Tilted Sky

Summary

Is it too much to ask for an ordinary, boring life? All Bai Jian has ever wanted is a warm bed to sleep in, a safe place to return to at the end of the day, enough food to fill his belly, and a dad who’s not just going to abandon him on a whim. From author Yao Emei and translator Kelly Zhang comes a heart-rending, emotional middle grade novel about a sixth-grade boy in China searching for a home and a family – and whose resourcefulness and generous heart carry him through. Readers who fell in love with Because of Winn-Dixie and Ghost will discover an inimitable voice in Bai Jian that will stay with them forever.
