Finding Esme


















It's all because her grandfather died on the top of the hill.  That's why she went up there.  That's how she found the bones.

Esme's home life is a bit odd.  Her father, Harlan, disappears for a long time.  Her mother, June Rain, withdraws into herself and rarely talks.  She has a brother, Bo, and a grandmother, Bee who is good at finding things.  In addition there are many other characters from the Texas town she lives in with quirky personalities.

The story really centers on Esme - finding her own purpose, finding the bones, finding her place in the family and coming to terms with it, and finding the dinosaur bones.

It was an okay book but I was left wanting more...
