Fly Away Home by Eve Bunting

4.0

What a sad story, about a boy and his father, who live in an airport because they cannot afford a home of their own. This book is a very honest look at what it means not to have a home, a daily life of trying not to get noticed, trying to make a little money, and never sleeping lying down. And yet, they have friends, his dad is hoping to soon have more than a part-time job, and then they will finally have a home.

No happy ending in this book, but instead lots of hope, and friendship.
