Peace, Locomotion

The stunning companion to the National Book Award finalist--from a three-time Newbery Honor winning author

Twelve-year-old Lonnie is finally feeling at home with his foster family. But because heâ€™s living apart from his little sister, Lili, he decides itâ€™s his job to be the â€œremembererâ€â€”and write down everything that happens while theyâ€™re growing up. Lonnieâ€™s musings are bittersweet; heâ€™s happy that he and Lili have new families, but though his new family brings him joy, it also brings new worries. With a foster brother in the army, concepts like Peace have new meaning for Lonnie.Told through letters from Lonnie to Lili, this thought-provoking companion to Jacqueline Woodsonâ€™s National Book Award finalist Locomotion tackles important issues in captivating, lyrical language. Lonnieâ€™s reflections on family, loss, love and peace will strike a note with readers of all ages.
