Upper Middle Grade / Lower YA Best for ages 11-14 Akna Sales has used her smarts, planning, strength and determination to keep her family together since her beloved grandparents died two years ago. The day the social worker takes Akna and her two sisters to a foster home, all her plans for helping Mama get well and saving her family are upended. Although every foster kid living with the Bohns at Mariposa Lane has problems, they've somehow created a resilient, loving family life Akna never could have imagined.

Despite her resistance, Akna discovers how to weave the complex legacy of her past into opportunities for a promising future. With the help of a caring teacher, a new friend at school, Akna's own determination, and the love of her foster family, she learns how to once again welcome the goodness in life, even when some things will always feel broken.
