- Reading
- Consider reading together if family separation or a parent’s drinking and gambling are close to home; pause to check how the family material feels, then enjoy the travel and wildlife adventures at the reader’s pace.
- Themes
- Responsibility and family problems: Becky initially connects her school difficulties and her parents’ unhappiness, then her father moves out amid drinking and gambling. The overview presents Becky’s eventual understanding that the adults’ problems are not her fault, and says she finds healthy ways to cope.
- Worth knowing
- Becky’s parents argue and separate; her father is described as drinking daily and gambling on sports. She also experiences stomach aches and headaches amid these worries.
