Description
A coming-of-age story that combines the familiar awkwardness and angst of growing up with the inescapable draw of the outdoors, Ricochet River is an unsentimental look at the simple freedoms often lost as we struggle to form identities and fit into an increasingly complicated world. From award-winning author Robin Cody, this 25th Anniversary Edition is a fresh look at the story of friendship, self-discovery, and overcoming stereotypes.Tags
