Description
In a story that moves with the urgency of a countdown, a young girl and her family confront the sudden changes that come with a new baby and the shifting rhythms of home. As numbers—nine, ten, and beyond—become a way to measure time, fear, and hope, the characters navigate love, loss, and the complicated work of growing up. With lyrical clarity and emotional precision, Nora Raleigh Baskin blends everyday realism with a quietly suspenseful edge, inviting readers to consider how children make sense of big events before they have the words for them. Themes of family, resilience, and the fragile boundary between safety and uncertainty pulse through every page, making this a moving, accessible read for middle-grade audiences.
