Walk Two Moons
Thirteen-year-old Sal embarks on a cross-country journey with her grandparents, unraveling the mystery of her mother’s disappearance. As she tells the tale of her friend Phoebe, Sal discovers parallels in their lives, grappling with loss and self-discovery. Creech’s lyrical prose weaves humor and heartache, capturing the essence of adolescence. I found myself laughing one moment and tearing up the next, completely absorbed in Sal’s world. A poignant exploration of family, friendship, and the power of storytelling.
