Zig loves electronics and discovering new things. But the thing he wants to discover the most is why his dad keeps canceling his visits and why his mom won't tell him anything or why she won't ask him for help. Because the fact is - his mom is struggling to pay the bills. When their landlady dies the end up being kicked out of their apartment and when living with Zig's aunt doesn't work they are homeless. Meanwhile, Zig thinks he is onto his dad's location via a geocaching username and clues he has found. Can Zig discover the truth?
I really like Kate Messner's works and her approach to tough topics. This deals with homelessness very respectfully that will make it relatable to many students I work with.
