From the author of the best-selling classic A Day No Pigs Would Die
In Depression-era Florida, twelve-year-old Yoolee's main concern in life is protecting his little sister, Havilah, and his long-suffering mother, Ruth Ann, from the violent rages of his alcoholic father. Then another horror enters their lives when the tiny swampland settlement is stalked by an enormous--and voracious--wild boar. When Yoolee's father disappears on a drunken binge, it's up to Yoolee to protect his family once again. In this spellbinding adventure and compelling coming-of-age novel, Robert Newton Peck continues his tradition of providing fine literature for young adult readers.
