A Year Without Autumn - Softcover
"Preteen readers will likely be swept up in the suspense." — Kirkus Reviews
Twelve-year-old Jenni’s world turns upside down when she takes an old elevator to visit her best friend, Autumn. Everything has changed when she steps out of the elevator: not only is her friend in a different condo, but tragedy has struck Autumn’s family, Jenni’s mother has had her baby, and everyone is a year older. How can Jenni alter the past and keep her family and Autumn’s from falling apart? With honesty and insight, Liz Kessler explores how the bonds of family and friendship can endure through time.
