Hold Fast by Blue Balliett
3.0
this book is hard for multiple reasons. it gives you a close up and personal account of what it is like for a child to be homeless. it is therefore very sad and the voices were mostly weepy (even so, I liked the actress), but also extremely educational and mind-opening.
but half of the problems seemed to be caused by the fact that the 4 year old knew everything and kept blurting it out all over the place. I kinda hated the mom and the 4 yr old, because basically their place in the plot was to mess things up worse for the main character. and i definitely do not get along with books that can make me dislike a 4 yr old.
