Raileys debut is a touching and humorous tale of family, loss, grief, and friendship. School Library Journal

A book for our times.-Betsy Bird for School Library Journal

Eleven-year-old Blue Warren is cursed with three bothersome brothers, a too-busy father, a recently deceased mother, and shes annoyed. With humor, hijinks, and heart, this debut novel is a touching tale of grief and the healing power of family.

Eleven-year-old Beulah Blue Warren spends every waking moment surrounded by boys: her three brothers, her father, her best friend, even the family dog, but thats never stopped her from being her usual rambunctious self. Grappling with the loss of her mother, Blue is determined to do what she wants without fear of consequences. When she is sent to the principals office, she gets out of it like a pro. When the witchy neighbor next door trashes her yard, Blue doesnt just get even, she gets ahead. No clean underwear because she hasnt done the laundry? No worries. Thats what her little brothers Superman underwear is for, isnt it? But everything changes on the day she explores the attic and finds her mothers death certificate. Blue will need to muster all the strength she has to deal with the truth, find forgiveness, trust in her father, and grieve for her mother once and for all.
