Description

The listing, Surviving The Applewhites by Stephanie S. Tolan has ended.

Have had this book sense i was in elemantary school! great book, that i can remember :) haven't read it for years, it's in great condition!

"Yeah, well, I don't intend to be here long anyway." Jake swung the net lightly across the tops of the grass and weeds, sending puffs of thistledown into the air.
good, E.D. thought. "Where do you intend to go?"
"Back to Rhode Island."
"Yeah? Dad says your social worker told him there aren't any more foster families back there who'll take you. If you go back they're going to send you to Juvenile Hall. They must have some kind of school there. You'd probably like it better than this one. At lease the other students would be more your type."
Jake didn't say anything. He just struck at the tall grass as if the net were a scythe-one way, then the other-scattering seed heads and the blossoms of Queen Anne's lace.

ALL LISTIA RULES APPLY!!
~~any questions, please ask!! happy bidding! :)

Tell me a little about the book....Would you think this would be good to have in our kids library for foster kids? Seems like it has a little to do with being in Foster care, but does it have a good message?

Found this on yahoo. Gives a better example on what the book is about, hope this helps!

"The setting of the book surviving the applewhites is about a young 13 year old lawbreaker called Jake Semple who has got kicked out of every school he's attended in Rhode Island State. With his parents in jail, Jake's sent to his grandfather who lives in Traybridge, NC by his social worker. Within a week Jake's kicked out of that middle school, and he is sent to live and learn with a family who 'home schools' their children, and who friends with his grandfather are. They are a family of artists; 'The Applewhites'."
