Olivia "Livvie" Owen feels things differently than her parents and two sisters. Livvie is autistic. Her family has had to move repeatedly because of her outbursts. When they again face eviction, Livvie is convinced she has a way to get back to a house where they were all happy, once.
"Even if readers cannot identify with a character who has autism, they will find this a heartwarming story as they journey with Livvie and her family to find a place to call home. The story will keep readers on edge as they anticipate Livvie's outbursts, culminating in something tragic. Nothing is too predictable, however, and readers are exposed to three-dimensional characters."
