Touch Blue | Cynthia Lord
4 posts | 7 read | 1 to read
An exquisite second novel from the Newbery Honor author of RULES! TOUCH BLUE, sure as certain, will touch your heart. The state of Maine plans to shut down her island's schoolhouse, which would force Tess's family to move to the mainland--and Tess to leave the only home she has ever known. Fortunately, the islanders have a plan too: increase the numbers of students by having several families take in foster children. So now Tess and her family are taking a chance on Aaron, a thirteen-year-old trumpet player who has been bounced from home to home. And Tess needs a plan of her own--and all the luck she can muster. Will Tess's wish come true or will her luck run out? Newbery Honor author Cynthia Lord offers a warm-hearted, humorous, and thoughtful look at what it means to belong--and how lucky we feel when we do. Touch Blue, sure as certain, will touch your heart.

It's easy to remember only the good parts of people if you never see them. Real people are much more complicated.

I thought that this book was a good book because of the storyline of the family adopting the young boy. The relationship of the boy and young girl is interesting with the details of their relationship.

Contemporary Realistic fiction and was written in 2010. This book is about a young girl and her family adopting a foster child. The book begins with the Hamilton family needing to add children to their school because the state of Maine said they had too few children. The young boy opens up to the family and they save the school at the end
