Louise and her dad live an idyllic life surrounded by nature. When he gets an assignment to go to Brazil to write an article for a magazine, Louise has to go live in a suburb with her aunt and uncle, leaving her cat, Cash, behind, since Aunt Kay is allergic to animals. Her dad says that it will be for only six weeks, and that everything will be okay. But it isn't, especially when Cash gets hit by a car and dies. And when a new friend's dad shoots a crow for no reason. And when her own dad gets sick, really sick, and might not be coming home.

Lews and her dad love their simple life in a cottage in the woods. While her dad writes articles about nature, she and her cat Cash venture into the woods to explore. She can’t resist bringing her animal finds home with her, but her dad’s rule is that by sundown she has to put them back where she found them. What she really wants is to hold one of the crows that comes to snack in her compost pile, but she knows they’ll never let her get close enough.

Then Lews’s dad leaves for South America to work on an article for National Geographic, and she has to go stay with her aunt and uncle in the suburbs for six weeks. The worst part is that Aunt Kay is allergic to animals, so Cash can’t come. Although Aunt Kay and Uncle Jack are really nice and Lews has made a dear friend in their neighborhood, she still misses the woods, her cat, her crows, her dad. It’s almost like she’s been carried away from her native habitat and is waiting for someone to return her by sundown.

When everything seems like it’s falling apart at once and her six week stay looks like it could turn into all summer, Lews is faced with a question: can she adapt and survive until she’s able to go home?

If you enjoy stories about nature and animals, give this one a try. ( )
