Shortlisted for the Sheila A. Egoff Children's Literature Prize, the CLA Book of the Year for Children Award, and selected as an OLA Best Bet for 2012 a poignant and gently funny middle - grade novel about two maybe orphans and their unlikely friendship with a cranky old neighbor. Set in Vancouver and the B.C. wilderness, this is a book that reflects Caroline Adderson's many writerly strengths - her "wit and a facility for dialogue, good pacing and a brisk, clean prose style" (Globe and Mail), her "close observation of telling details" (Quill & Quire) and her ability to "celebrate a child's imagination in a realistically humorous way" (Canadian Materials).
