Karley and Kelsey may be sisters, but their personalities are polar opposites Karley the younger sister is a drama queen in school as well as home and can never sit still for a minute. Her older sister {Karley was 10 and her sister Kelsey was 12} is calm, cool and almost always collected. The preteen girls bicker as sisters do, but they are about to need each other more than ever. Their father's company shuts down and he soon finds another job in another state-Tennessee. This means the entire family has to uproot their lives in Michigan and move miles away from the only home they have ever known. Karley and Kelsey are devastated by the news, but they have no choice. They reluctantly accept the news and begin packing. The first day in a new school is a disaster for both girls-but Karley has a harder time adjusting. No familiar friends, no family {the grandparents, cousins, etc were very close}, and she soon begins to fall into signs of depression while Kelsey seems to adjust much more quickly. But then things seem to happen-a lost puppy, tryouts for the soccer team, and a mystery Though it is the new friendship of Willie, a deaf boy from school, that makes Karley realize just how blessed her life is. Will Tennessee ever truly become her home? With important themes of friendship, family, and acceptance, HOME AGAIN, is a warm-hearted story filled with fundamental life lessons on courage, commitment, and forgiveness
