Thirteen-year-old Salamanca Tree Hiddle, proud of her country roots and the "Indian-ness in her blood," travels from Ohio to Idaho with her eccentric grandparents. Along the way, she tells them of the story of Phoebe Winterbottom, who received mysterious messages, who met a "potential lunatic," and whose mother disappeared.
Beneath Phoebe's stories Salamanca's own story and that of her mother, who left on April morning for Idaho, promising to return before the tulips bloomed. Sal's mother has not, however, returned, and the trip to Idaho takes on a growing urgency as Salamanca hopes to get to Idaho in time for her mother's birthday and bring her back, despite her father's warning that she is fishing in the air.
This richly layered novel is in turn funny, mysterious, and touching. Sharon Creech's original voice tells a story like no other, one that readers will not soon forget.
Seems to be slow pacing. Seems like they don’t want to move at all.
Respect means a feeling of deep admiration for someone or something elicted by their abilities, qualities or achievements. Respect is a meaningful and powerful word. We all want others do treat us with respect in return we shall treat them with respect. The opposite of respect is disrespect which has a much more stronger effect. Disrespect can be defined as having a lack of respect, being impolite, rude and overall intolerant.
