(2) 4-6 When Curtis and Artie's mom disappears and weeks go by, Curtis keeps her absence a secret. They survive with the help of elderly neighbor Mrs. Burt, but after she takes them to her cabin in the woods, Curtis begins to feel conflicted about her intentions. The subtly resilient tone (with comic notes) will keep readers going through the heavy moments and the moral conundrums.
