Quinn's world seems to have started a free fall. Her mom
went off to sing with a band, her father is moving them from
her hometown to the swamps, and her father has lost his job.
Also, because she changed schools, she could not be the
editor of her school newspaper. In the middle of all this
turmoil the county is split over the possibility of a strip
mining company taking over a town to mine. This 194 page
book shows how a family deals with hard times through humor,
friendship, and family ties. It is a warm, cozy story about
troubling times for a family and community.
