Searching for Jupiter

Orbiting Jupiter

Jack is a 12-year-old boy whose family lives on a farm in Maine. Recently, a new member joined the family – 13-year-old Joseph. Joseph has been through a lot; he doesn't want to talk to anyone or be touched by others, and he carries a big secret in his heart that he can't let go of. As their understanding deepens, Jack sees the real Joseph and chooses to support him unconditionally. Under the influence of the acceptance, trust, and love from this foster family and school teachers, Joseph gradually changes. The two boys come to understand the true meaning of family and the sacrifices required for it.
Two-time Newbery Medal winner and author of "The Wednesday Wars" and "Okay for Now," Gary D. Schmidt brings us this tender and heartbreaking work with concise and restrained prose.
