Bookroo's summary
In 1979 Utah, Britta's world shatters when her foster sister, Dori, is set to return to her birth mother. Determined to keep Dori, Britta faces a heart-wrenching battle that challenges her understanding of family. As she grapples with anger and desperation, Britta must confront her own biases and the complexities of love and belonging. Will she risk everything to hold onto her sister, or will she find a new definition of family? This poignant journey explores the bonds that tie us together and the courage it takes to let go.
From the publisher
“After twelve-year-old Britta’s family fostered Chipeta, a Native American baby, for four years, Chipeta’s birth mother has the right to take her back. In 1979 Utah, Britta can’t imagine life without her beloved little sister, and so she grows determined to do whatever she can to keep her sister and to eventually understand how complicated and important family is–in all its forms”–
