For these three the world is off-balance, and they can begin to find their footing only by leaning together.&nbsp; According to the jacket copy, theirs will become \u201ca friendship that changed their lives.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A new book from DiCamillo is almost sure to be followed by starred reviews like a string of baby ducklings, and this one is no exception. It bears certain DiCamillo distinctives: quirky secondary characters, striking observations of everyday life, repeated themes, and unusual juxtapositions.&nbsp;Like the best fiction, it asks good questions and doesn\u2019t roll out definitive answers.&nbsp;The main question, specifically stated in the text: What are we here for?&nbsp; The answer\u2014or I should say suggested answer\u2014is offered by Mr. Staphopoulos, Raymie\u2019s life-saving coach: \u201cWe must help each other.&nbsp; Let us be problem-solvers together.\u201d&nbsp; Raymie\u2019s early attempts at problem-solving fall flat, making her feel even more of a failure, but at the end life offers a chance to step up and help in dramatic fashion.&nbsp;Though classified as realistic fiction, the author includes far-fetched story details that border on magical realism.&nbsp;She also sees \u201cmagical\u201d dimensions in the ordinary world that hint at meaning beyond the material, and reality beyond the real\u2014see especially her use of light.&nbsp; However, the three main characters may be difficult to relate to (Raymie too passive, Lou too dreamy, Beverly too angry), and the story may appeal more to adults than kids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Considerations<\/strong>: Immoral actions overlooked in the main characters, such as stealing (Louisiana and her grandmother steal to eat) and trespassing (Beverly picks locks with her ever-ready pocket knife)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bottom Line:<\/strong> A thoughtful story from one of the best contemporary writers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-related-reading-at-redeemed-reader\">Related Reading at Redeemed Reader:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Reviews:<\/strong> For the rest of the story, see <strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/redeemedreader.com\/louisianas-way-home-by-kate-dicamillo\/\">Louisiana&#8217;s Way Home<\/a><\/em><\/strong> and <strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/redeemedreader.com\/beverly-right-here-by-kate-dicamillo\/\">Beverly, Right Here<\/a><\/em><\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Reviews<\/strong>: More books that feature young heroines going it alone (or without significant parental help): <strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/redeemedreader.com\/mystery-under-the-stars\/\">Three Times Lucky<\/a><\/em><\/strong>, <strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/redeemedreader.com\/the-orphan-band-of-springdale-by-anne-nesbet\/\">The Orphan Band of Springdal<\/a><\/em><\/strong>e, and <strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/redeemedreader.com\/hope-in-the-holler-by-lisa-lewis-tyre\/\">Hope in the Holler<\/a><\/em><\/strong> (starred review)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Reviews:<\/strong> More books about friendship: <strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/redeemedreader.com\/the-enemys-daughter-by-anne-blankman\/\">The Enemy&#8217;s Daughter<\/a><\/em><\/strong>, <strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/redeemedreader.com\/each-of-us-a-universe-by-jeanne-zulick-ferruolo\/\">Each of Us Is a Universe<\/a><\/em><\/strong> (note considerations in review), <strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/redeemedreader.com\/the-house-that-wasnt-there-by-elana-k-arnold\/\">The House That Wasn&#8217;t There<\/a><\/em><\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background has-small-font-size\" style=\"background-color:#c6dadf\"><em>We are participants in the Amazon LLC affiliate program;
