Dicey's Song (Tilllerman Cycle, Bk. 2)

Keeping her family together is what thirteen-year-old Dicey does best. But now that all four Tillerman children have found a new home with their grandmother, Dicey has to learn to let go a little and let them live their own lives. But when you've taken care of everyone else for so long, it's hard not to continue with the old ways. And Dicey's got a few problems of her own; she's bored with everyone and everything at school and doesn't think anyone can tell her anything she wants to know. Slowly Dicey begins to understand that everyone has something to teach and that life is a lesson that doesn't get easier. . .
