Amalee

This sparkling fiction debut from singer-songwriter Dar Williams introduces an endearing new character to middle-grade literature.

Amalee's world is all out of order. She's used to chaos, because of the frequent presence of her father's bantering, bickering group of fun friends. But when Amalee's dad becomes seriously ill, the chaos takes new forms - and the ways of coping come from some very unexpected places.
