Titi Silvia leaves me by myself to unpack, but its not like I brought a bunch of stuff. How do you prepare for the unpreparable? How do you fit your whole life in one bag? And how am I supposed to trust social services when they wont trust me back? Laura Rodriguez Colon has a plan: no matter what the grown-ups say, she will live with her parents again. Can you blame her? Its tough to make friends as the new kid at school. And while staying at her aunts house is okay, it just isnt the same as being in her own space. So when Laura finds a puppy, it seems like fate. If she can train the puppy to become a therapy dog, then maybe shell be allowed to visit her parents. Maybe the dog will help them get better and things will finally go back to the way they should be. After all, how do you explain to others that youre technically a foster kid, even though you live with your aunt? And most importantly . . . how do you explain that youre not where you belong, and you just want to go home?.
