I read this to a friend whose parents are divorced and she also loved it. It’s a great story that I would totally recommend and remember forever. ( ) Rigel doesn't want to leave her beloved Alaskan bush cabin, but when her parents divorce, she is forced to move to Connecticut with her Mom and sisters. Connecticut is everything Alaska is not: crowded, small, and no wilderness at all. Her father promised if she could stay there a year, she could come back to live with him in Alaska. Rigel keeps her head down and counts the days. This is her story of finding home. The author includes wonderful tidbits of Alaskan bush lore and realistic viewpoints of each state's strengths and weaknesses. I fell in love with Rigel and her family and friends. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

HTML:A thoughtful middle-grade debut about a girl from off-the-grid Alaska adjusting to suburban life Eleven-year-old Rigel Harman loves her life in off-the-grid Alaska. She hunts rabbits, takes correspondence classes through the mail, and plays dominoes with her family in their two-room cabin. She doesn't mind not having electricity or running waterâ??instead, she's got tall trees, fresh streams, and endless sky. But then her parents divorce, and Rigel and her sisters have to move with their mom to the Connecticut suburbs to live with a grandmother they've never met. Rigel hates it in Connecticut. It's noisy, and crowded, and there's no real nature. Her only hope is a secret pact that she made with her father: If she can stick it out in Connecticut for one year, he'll bring her back home. At first, surviving the year feels impossible. Middle school is nothing like the wilderness, and she doesn't connect with anyone . . . until she befriends a crow living behind her school. And if this wild creature has made a life for itself in the suburbs, then, just maybe, Rigel can too. 365 Days to Alaska is a wise and funny debut novel about finding beauty, hope, and connection in the world no matter where you areâ??even Connecticut.
