The Truth of Me by Patricia MacLachlan



I wasn't overly fond of White Fur Flying but I like this Patricia MacLachlan one much more.  It is very simple and short - 114 pages - but to me the writing was better and the story itself was better.  Will kids read it though...time will tell.

Robbie and his dog Ellie are  spending the summer with Robbie's grandmother, Maddy while his parents tour with their string quartet.  Maddy is a bit eccentric but Robert feels she understands him better than his parents.  In a very short time Robert learns some important truths about his grandmother, his mother, and even himself.

I liked this...
