When Louisiana Elefante's granny wakes her up in the middle of the night to tell her that the day of reckoning has arrived and they have to leave home immediately, Louisiana isn't overly worried. After all, Granny has many middle-of-the-night ideas. But this time, things are different. This time, Granny intends for them never to return. Separated from her best friends, Raymie and Beverly, Louisiana struggles to oppose the winds of fate (and Granny) and find a way home. But as Louisiana's life becomes entwined with the lives of the people of a small Georgia town -- including a surly motel owner, a walrus-like minister, and a mysterious boy with a crow on his shoulder -- she starts to worry that she is destined only for good-byes. (Which could be due to the curse on Louisiana's and Granny's heads. But that is a story for another time.) Louisiana never knew her parents. Her grandmother awoke her in the middle of the night to say it was time to move along. Unstable in the way she raised Louisiana, Louisiana was ok when she had her two friends Beverly and Rayme (previously mentioned in books written by this author.) Finding that her grandmother ran out of money and passed to Georgia border, Louisiana had to find a dentist to help her grandmother with a wicked toothache. When all her teeth were pulled, and Louisiana gave a fake name and address where the bill could be sent, it is downhill from there on. Unable to find a place to sleep, Louisiana is able to drive the car (in a not so great way) to a run down hotel. It is through a young boy's friendship that Louisiana finds her way. In the middle of the night, her grandmother left her alone with no food or money. There is a happy ending to this spunky child's life, and without too much drama, the author allows us to see the strength of the characters, and the resiliancy of Louisiana. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
