In this stunning debut novel, two very different characters—a black boy
who loses his home in Hurricane Katrina and a white boy in Vermont who
loses his best friend in a tragic accident—come together to find
healing.
A hurricane, a tragic death, two boys, one marble. How they intertwine
is at the heart of this beautiful, poignant book. When ten-year-old
Zavion loses his home in Hurricane Katrina, he and his father are forced
to flee to Baton Rouge. And when Henry, a ten-year-old
boy in northern Vermont, tragically loses his best friend, Wayne, he
flees to ravaged New Orleans to help with hurricane relief efforts—and
to search for a marble that was in the pocket of a pair of jeans donated
to the Red Cross.
