Journey

Journey, Patricia MacLachlan

Journey's mom just left him and his sister, Cat, with their grandmother and grandfather.  At first Journey thinks he needs his mother to carry on, until his photo-loving grandpa steps into the picture.  He teaches Journey to love pictures because you get to keep your memories and, that a person in front of you is different behind the camera lens. 

I love this short, interesting read because it shows how much Journey changed over the course of the book.
