Someplace Else.

I'm a single woman, retired, and an RVer. I love this book! The main character is me, me, me! Naturally, I bought the book for me, not for my grandchild. :>)

The book I read was Someplace Else. The author of my book was Ben Shecter. My book was about this little boy whose life was already messed up. His parents went broke and had to move into this beat up trashy apartment home. Which from there he thought his life was ruined right then and there.

Mrs. Tillby travels off to visit different places in search of a new home. She tries the city, the beach, the mountains, a lakeside cabin, an adobe hut in the desert, and other different ways of living. But no place feels like "home." She comes across a nice comfortable motor home so she can keep traveling, but still be at home.

It shows that there are many different places to live, and each one has something wonderful to offer. It may open children's eyes up to the different ways people live, and although they are not the same, they make those who live there happy.
