<i>Gramps says that I am a country girl at heart, and that is true.</i> <p>Thirteen-year-old Salamanca Tree Hiddle, proud of her country roots and the "Indian-ness in her blood," travels from Ohio to Idaho with her eccentric grandparents.

Sharon Creech's original voice tells a story like no other, one that readers will not soon forget.</p>
