To begin with i feel for sal, because she lost a parent. I lost one for a time, but then i got to see him again. She lost her parent basically all her life. She has a loving dad and grandparents for her though. Her best friends name is phoebe,she does alot of stuff with her. One day a mysterious person knocked on phoebe's house door, he seemed to be a launatic to her. After that day messages have been appearing on her front door like Dont judge a man until you walked two moons with his moccasins. I am puzzled about that message still but i think it means to not judge someone until they step into their shoes while they are caught between issues. So far think this book is very peculiar. I am enjoying it. :)
