Ella is loathe to leave her mother in a Seattle cancer ward, but has no choice. She is flighted off to the House of Mud, her eccentric grandmother whom she's never seen, and who seems more concerned with her grammar than her mother's illness. The one girl her age in the vicinity also seems to take an instant dislike to her. Peacocks wail outside the strange adobe house and inside she is confronted with gaudy yellow walls in one room and a tiger skin in another. How will she survive the summer? A young girl makes her fractured family whole again with the help of a very special book When eleven-year-old Ella's mother has to be hospitalized to undergo a dangerous cancer treatment, Ella spends the summer at "Broken Family Camp" with her eccentric grandmother, whom she's never met. The situation is hardly ideal for either of them. Ella is scared her mother may die, but her grandmother seems to care more about her library full of books than she does about her very own granddaughter. But when a rare and beloved book, Kepler's Dream of the Moon, is stolen from her grandmother's amazing library, Ella and her new friend Rosie make up their minds to find it. Finding the beautiful book her grandmother loves so much could even be the key to healing Ella's broken family. An affecting and beautifully written story of family, forgiveness and the wonder of the stars, Kepler's Dream is a sparkling and memorable debut. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
