Produktbeschreibung
Dear Teen Reader, Being a kid in the 21st century is hard in many ways and everyone has a story to tell. This is just one story about one person and it starts in 2008. Lyle Kent is an average fifteen-year-old who is just starting high school when his whole life is turned upside down in a single day. He must use all his courage to help his family survive the loss of everything they once had, including their family or "tribe" as Lyle's Mom calls them. Just as they get settled again, in a new and strange state, Lyle's personal life is threatened. One kind act spins the gossip and bullies of a small town into a frenzy and Lyle feels he must act. Lyle is always looking for a sign; perhaps it is written in the sky. He keeps hoping he will find something magic, but he finds that he has to look within himself for strength. This story is based partially on a true moment in time. The writing that Lyle does is based on the folklore of the desert of Arizona and the mythic native culture of the Pacific Northwest.
Autorenporträt
June A. Reynolds is an Oregonian and a "Sherwoodian." She is a graduate of Sherwood High and the University of Oregon and went on to be a teacher and librarian in Oregon. This series of books outlines the character of Lyle Kent and his experience of living in Oregon after leaving Arizona. The contrasts of two places are not lost on Lyle and he ends up fitting in fairly well in the Pacific Northwest. However, there is much gossip taken for truth that gives Lyle much grief. He somehow survives by much support. knowing himself, and trying to be kind to others.
