About this product
Product Information
Zettie and her Mama left their warm and comfortable home in Jamaica for an uncertain life in the United Sates. With Papa gone, Mama can't find a steady job that will sustain them and so they are forced to live in their car. But Mama's unwavering love, support, and gutsy determination give Zettie the confidence that, together, she and her mother can meet all challenges.Monica Gunning's moving and authentic story about homelessness in an American city was developed with the help of the Homeless Children's Network in San Francisco. Elaine Pedlar's strong and lively illustrations bring the story to life in vibrant chalk pastel.

"The story is heart-wrenching and an eye opener to maybe those that do not have to live a life of indignities.The illustrations are done with chalk as cartoon-ish chunky characters. The colors are mainly muted and darker which adds to the overall sadness of the book. The book is targeted to 6+ and much discussion can take place with the reading and rereading of this book. Think about it and read this winner of a book. 5 stars!" -- Reading Authors Skipping Stones Book Awards, Skipping Stones Magazine, "The story is heart-wrenching and an eye opener to maybe those that do not have to live a life of indignities.The illustrations are done with chalk as cartoon-ish chunky characters.

I've bought from them a few times, and every time the records arrive just as described and well packed for shipping. Their prices for the EU releases I want have been far better than any other sellers. So I will continue to buy vinyl from them, knowing that they maintain a high level of customer support & communication.

Album better than described. Perfect shape, sealed, with promo sticker on seal. Great communication. Very appreciative to own this! Ordered on Saturday and shipped out the following Tuesday that seller said was seven days so I guess this is a big time seller that only counts business days. Just something to note. But this digipak, rereleased and remastered, expanded album is in collector’s condition.
