Journey is filled with denial and resentment when he learns that his mother is never coming back for him and his sister, who are left with their grandparents. Trying to piece together a semblance of a past from the shredded photos his mother left behind, Journey finds the camera shows him something that his eyes have missed—things like the inevitability of his mother's departure,and the love that still binds the family. An extraordinary story of abandonment and hope from Newbery Medalist Patricia MacLachlan.
