Danielle Svetkov (BSJ95)

Jeanne Ann is smart, stubborn, living in an orange van, and determined to find a permanent address before the start of seventh grade. Cal is tall, sensitive, living in a humongous house across the street, and determined to save her. Jeanne Ann is roughly as enthusiastic about his help as she is about living in a van. As the two form an unlikely friendship in this Middle-Grade debut, they’re buoyed by a cast of complex, oddball characters, who let them down, lift them up, and leave you cheering.
