Where the heart is

Knowles, Johanna, 1970-2021
Books, Manuscripts
Summer is meant to be a time of long days spent swimming at the lake and hanging out. And this year thirteen-year-old Rachel has a summer job, taking care of the animals--including an adorable baby steer--at the hobby farm across the road. At home, though, her parents seem more worried about money than usual; they've even started arguing about it. Fortunately, Rachel's best friend, Micah, is a constant, loyal, steadying presence. But he wants to be more than friends, and she just doesn't feel "that way" about him--or any boy. But there's this girl she's getting close to... This summer, Rachel will have to face some new realities. Things change, and they end, but there just might be a few beginnings, too.
