Read the excerpt from Homecoming
At half past eight, Dicey herded everybody back into the
mall, to use the bathrooms they had found earlier. Later,
Sammy and Maybeth fell asleep easily, curled up along
the back seat. James moved up to the front with Dicey.
Dicey couldn't see how they were both to sleep in the
front seat, but she supposed they would manage it.
James sat stiftly, gripping the wheel. James had a
narrow head and sharp features, a nose that pointed out,
pencil-thin eyebrows, a narrow chin. Dicey studied him
in the darkening car. They were parked so far from the
nearest lamppost that they were in deep shadows.
With her brothers and sisters near, with the two youngest
asleep in the back seat, sitting as they were in a cocoon
of darkness, she should feel safe. But she didn't. Though
it was standing still the car seemed to be flying down a
highway, going too fast. Even the dark inside of it was
O She is very worried about what would happen to her
family
She is in denial about her family's present
circumstances
O She is trying to stay upbeat and carefree whenever
possible
She is having a hard time feeling safe in almost all
situations.
