Strays Like Us

Strays Like Us
Richard Peck

Being left by her mother, Molly Moberly went to live with her aunt, a old woman named Fay who work as a home nurse. She has been told that her mom will get her, so she waited, not getting friends except for one, Will. The school started, Molly's mom still haven't come to get her, and still not making friends. After she met Tracy, a home schooled girl she thought about getting friends until she went to Tracy's house, she found out that she doesn't belong in Tracy's life. After finding out the truth of her mom she stopped waiting, her mom got out of hospital already, she just doesn't know.

My favorite part is where Molly discovered that Will's dad who said to be in jail is not, Will's dad lived secretly in Will's House, but when she found out he is already dead. Richard Peck described so well that I can even see the expression on Molly's face.
