The stunning companion to the National Book Award finalist--from a
three-time Newbery Honor winning author Twelve-year-old Lonnie is

to be the “rememberer”—and write down everything that happens
while they’re growing up. Lonnie’s musings are bittersweet; he’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 Woodson’s National Book Award finalist Locomotion tackles
important issues in captivating, lyrical language. Lonnie’s
reflections on family, loss, love and peace will strike a note with
readers of all ages.
