About this listen

Orphaned Sam has to leave behind his affluent life in the city: his computer, his trendy clothing, and his pride, to live with his aunt in a village at the back of beyond. He must sleep on the floor in a one-roomed hut, sharing with his aunt and cousins. He misses his mother terribly, but she seems so very far away. How can he adjust? Where does he belong?©2009 Jan Michael (P)2009 Oakhill Publishing Growing Up & Facts of Life Literature & Fiction
