SHIFTY

SHIFTY, by Lynn Hazen (Tricycle Press 2008)(ages 10-14). Fifteen year old Soli, aka Shifty (because of his survival skills), tries to help out his foster mother, seven year old foster sister and infant foster brother as much as possible. It's not his fault this involves marginally legal activities, like driving without a license or picking up a homeless woman to pose as their grandmother...

SHIFTY is an engaging, heartwarming, and sometimes funny story of growing up, responsibility, and what makes a family.
