Rosie and Skate are as different as two sisters can be. They don't even live in the same house right now. Their mother is dead and their alcoholic father is in jail. Their story is told in alternating chapters. Each one of them looks at the world a little differently. Although the book is relatively short the growth of the sisters is shown. Each learns how to cope with their dad, their relationships, and how to address their weaknesses. A charming story that doesn't end neatly yet addresses many issues that are being faced by teens today.
