About this product

Product Information

From award-winning author Sarah Ellis comes the story of an American draft dodger who turns up to stay with thirteen-year-old Charlotte and her family. In 1970 Vancouver, thirteen-year-old Charlotte and her best friend, Dawn, are keen to avoid the pitfalls of adolescence. Couldn't they just skip teenhood altogether, along with its annoying behaviors--showing off just because you have a boyfriend, obsessing about marriage and a ring and matching dining-room furniture? Couldn't one just learn about life from Jane Austen and spend the days eating breakfast at noon, watching "People in Conflict," and thrift-store shopping for cool castoffs to tie-dye for the upcoming outdoor hippie music festival? But life becomes more complicated when the girls meet a Texan draft dodger who comes to live with Charlotte's Quaker family. Tom Ed expands Charlotte's horizons as they discuss everything from war to civil disobedience to women's liberation. Grappling with exhilarating and disturbing new ideas, faced with a censorship challenge to her beloved English teacher and trying to decode the charismatic draft dodger himself, Charlotte finds it harder and harder to stick to her unteen philosophy, and to see eye to eye with Dawn.

Reviews
For Pick-up Sticks, winner, Governor General's Award "... the kind of unique, well-rounded personalities readers expect from this fine Canadian author." -- Kirkus, starred review For Out of the Blue, finalist, Governor General's Award "Ellis creates well-developed characters, not only believable but wholly likable; her deft use of wit is delightful." -- Kirkus For The Several Lives of Orphan Jack, finalist, Governor General's Award "Ellis has created a small gem here, with messages about following your heart tucked into the sentences, phrases, thoughts, and ideas that she seamlessly weaves together." -- Booklist For Outside In * "Appealing and provocative, this challenges readers to assess their own lives, bringing up compelling issues as wide-ranging as the ills of consumerism and the obligations of friendship." -- Booklist, starred review * "More than a thoughtful ode to found family, this slim, sweet novel challenges readers to look anew at the ones they have." -- Kirkus, starred review "Ellis is simultaneously a knotty and substantive writer and one with a light, conversational style ..."-- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, Scintillating prose, rich dialogue, and charming characterizations mark a novel that straddles the boundary between middle-grade and YA. . . .
