The day my mother left me

Prosek, James 1975- (Author). Johnstone, Joel. (Added Author).

Summary: Best-selling author and artist James Prosek explores the emotional repercussions of a mother's abandonment on all members of a family. When Jeremy was young, his mother walked out on his family. Jeremy, his father, and his sister each reacted differently to this painful change in their family structure. As Jeremy struggled to handle his father's depression, his sister's distance, and eventually, the role of his new stepmother, he found solace in painting and fishing. When little else could explain his mother's abandonment, he began to understand it in terms of nature--in the ways human needs and desires align with those of other animals. "One of America's more gifted young writers--and this deeply felt story reaffirms his great promise."--Tom Brokaw.
