A gripping, heartfelt story about the
promises that bind a family together.
The Book of One Hundred Truths
JULIE SCHUMACHER
IT’S HARD FOR Thea to write four truths a day in the notebook her
mother gave her for the summer. Especially when her grandparents’ house
on the Jersey Shore is even more packed with family than usual, and her
cousin Jocelyn won’t leave her alone. Jocelyn wants to know what’s in
Thea’s notebook. But Thea won’t tell anyone about the secret she has
promised to keep.
“Issues of secrets and lies will resonate with young readers. . . . A compelling
novel.”—The Bulletin
“Strong characterizations. . . . Readers will respond to [Jocelyn’s] fortitude.”
—Booklist
