Softcover, new

Brief Description:
Ash has always felt alone. Adults ignore the climate crisis. Other kids
Ash’s age are more interested in pop stars and popularity contests than in
fighting for change. Even Ash’s family seems to be sleepwalking through
life. The only person who ever seemed to get Ash was their Grandpa Edwin.
Before he died, he used to talk about building a secret cabin, deep in the
California wilderness. Did he ever build it? What if it’s still there,
waiting for him to come back…or for Ash to find it? To Ash, that maybe-
mythical cabin is starting to feel like the perfect place for a fresh start
and an escape from the miserable feeling of alienation that haunts their
daily life. But making the wilds your home isn’t easy. And as much as Ash
wants to be alone…can they really be happy alone? Can they survive alone?
From New York Times–bestselling author and illustrator Jen Wang comes a
singularly affecting story about self-discovery, self-reliance, and the
choice to live when it feels like you have no place in the world.
