Description
In the dust-choked summer of 1936, twelve-year-old Abilene Tucker is sent to the small town of Manifest, Kansas, by her restless father. Hoping to uncover secrets about her father's past, Abilene finds herself immersed in the town's history and the lives of its eccentric inhabitants. As she pieces together stories from the past, Abilene confronts her own feelings of abandonment and learns about the enduring power of hope and community. This Newbery Medal winner masterfully weaves together past and present, exploring themes of belonging, family, and the search for truth.
