The ambassador of Nowhere Texas  Cover Image Book Book

The ambassador of Nowhere Texas / Kimberly Willis Holt.

Summary:

Decades after Toby's life-changing summer with Zachary Beaver, Toby's daughter Rylee is at a crossroads - her best friend, Twig, has started pushing her away just a Joe, a kid from New York, settles into their small town. The two unlikely friends soon embark on a project to find Zachary Beaver and hopefully reconnect him with Rylee's father almost thirty years later. But while they are on their sleuthing adventure, Rylee learns the real reason why Joe and his mother left New York City in the wake of 9/11. In stunning prose, this beautiful novel is a tribute to friendships old and new, and explores the challenges of rebuilding what may seen lost or destroyed. It is a story full of hope and promise.
