  Dicey had known for a while that something was not right with her mother. There wasn't anything she could put her finger on, but when Momma said goodbye to them that day in the supermarket car park, Dicey knew that she wasn't coming back. And so Dicey, as the eldest, plans to lead the three others halfway across America to their aunt - on foot. The story of how they reached their destination and what they found there is one of the most gripping in children's literature. It is the story of one child's courage against impossible odds, and of a determination to find a home that never lets up. Homecoming, the first in a series of seven wonderful novels, is a must for any reader, young or old.
