The Sundown Rule

By Wendy Townsend

Book Overview

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. Like her previous book, "Lizard Love", Wendy Townsend's finely observed story of a girl's love of all things wild and free is a powerful testimony to our natural world.
