Deliver Us From Normal
by Kate Klise
Yes, there really is a Normal, Illinois. Charles Harrisong should
know; he was born there. But life is difficult for Charles because
his family isn't normal at all. They're poor, for one thing. They
stand out, which is the worst thing. After an ugly incident at school,
Charles and family leave Normal and begin an adventure that takes
them to a houseboat that just might be their new home. And Charles
begins a personal journey within his own heart, one that will ultimately
deliver him both from and to himself.
Excerpt:
A group of boys from my class were at the same movie (of course
they were!), sitting in the last row of the theatre; eating from
huge barrels of popcorn and oversized boxes of chocolate-covered
raisins. And laughing! Laughing!.
