(3) 4-6 As he waits in the ER with his adoptive parents for news of his sister's condition, T.J. looks through the "life book" that he kept while in foster care. His pictures and drawings trigger memories that slowly reveal his troubled past. Using a spare, poetic narrative voice, Welch perceptively crafts a story of children struggling to understand their mother's neglect.
