From the publisher

Tim is always losing things when he travels — he is a foster child, and often moves from one family to the next. One day he realizes he has lost something very precious: his laugh. Then he moves in with the Lee family, and some news arrives that might just help Tim find his laugh again. The Boy Who Lost His Laugh takes a sensitive look at foster care from the child’s perspective, and shows how humour and love can help you bounce back and find what you’ve been looking for all along.
