An extremely touching tale that helped me make it through some tough times as a kid. I'm happy to say that this book is still kept at my local library.
If you have trouble dealing with violence commited against children, then this book may not be the book for you.
I think the fact that I still remember this book after 13 years is a testament to what a good book it was.

I read this book for Accelerated Reader at school and it was pretty good. Laurie is a girl who'se mom hurts her and she is mooving all the time because her mom wants no one to find out. Laure just starts to make friends at school when then she has to moove. Laure finally decides to tell her music teacher what her mom is donig, but the music teacher has someting wrong with her appendix. This was a really good book.

Laurie is 10 going on 11 years old and her mom, Annabelle, beats her. They move every time someone in the town they live in gets suspicious, and Laurie isn't allowed to have any close friends because Annabelle is afraid that she will tell her friends her secret, and Annabelle doesn't want to risk getting caught. When Laurie makes a friend named George, she keeps it a secret, and when Annabelle finds out she is furious. She beats Laurie hard. Laurie's stepbrother, Tim, finds out about Annabelle and tries to help. You'll like this book because it's very intriguing.
