Fink, Darren: Gruhit's Hope

A wonderfully superb magical adventure!

Gruhit Brown's life is a whirlwind of events. He and his two older siblings don't currently live with their mom and have just moved into their eighth foster home. As if there wasn't enough on his plate with getting used to the routine in his new foster parents' big blue house, Gruhit also has to navigate a new school complete with a class bully and other children who don't have the same color of skin as him. Will he ever really feel safe and comfortable in this new town? Why does the abandoned factory across the street freak him out? Why do his foster parents act so strange at times? Are their bedtime stories about magical creatures true? Why does the family cat look at him so oddly? Nevermind that... Did he hear the cat talk?!
