Sinossi
Joseph, padre a tredici anni, non ha mai visto la figlia Juno, data in adozione alla nascita. Joseph non ha avuto una vita semplice: di sua madre sa pochissimo, il padre è alcolista e violento. Dopo un periodo in riformatorio, viene assegnato a una famiglia affidataria nel Maine: qui scopre per la prima volta cosa significa essere accolti senza pregiudizi e cosa si prova ad avere qualcuno che stia dalla tua parte. Grazie ai suoi nuovi genitori e al fratellino dodicenne ritrova se stesso e un nuovo rapporto di fiducia verso gli altri. E questo gli rende ancora più difficile stare lontano dalla piccola Juno. Questa è la storia di un ragazzo ferito, di un padre ritrovato e del suo grande amore. Età di lettura: a partire dai 12 anni.
