A PLACE FOR YOU
12 year-old Tracy can't imagine the threads of her personal story intertwining with those of a leopard named Harriet, but moving to her Great Aunt Lynette's farm makes it happen.
At first, Tracy feels distant from the stern old lady, but things change with the appearance of a stray cat. With the help of Kitty, her neighbor, Mallory, and a conservation warden named Jamie, love grows between Tracy and her aunt, and a friendship blooms among the unlikely group. And when Kitty and Tracy explore a nearby wooded canyon, the adventure that follows carries Harriet's legacy forward in unique and life-affirming ways.
Inspired in part by true events, A PLACE FOR YOU is a story of growth in love, friendship, and courage.
