I’ve known it since last night:It’s been too long to expect them to return. Something’s happened.May  is helping out on a neighbor’s Kansas prairie homestead—just until  Christmas, says Pa. She wants to contribute, but it’s hard to be  separated from her family by 15 long, unfamiliar miles. Then the  unthinkable happens: May is abandoned. Trapped in a tiny snow-covered  sod house, isolated from family and neighbors, May must prepare for the  oncoming winter. While fighting to survive, May’s memories of her  struggles with reading at school come back to haunt her. But she’s  determined to find her way home again. Caroline Starr Rose’s fast-paced  novel, written in beautiful and riveting verse, gives readers a strong  new heroine to love.

Such an amazing and powerful book. I loved every word.
