Annie always tells the truth. This gets her in trouble. A spirited middle-grade novel, Annie California is written in the journal voice of ten-year-old Annie describing the crazy trip she takes cross-country with her homeless family in their dilapidated van. Annie’s brave, funny, and all-too revealing observations get her in trouble with her dad and almost everybody else in the world. It’s said that every family has a truth-teller. Only Annie can describe the wild, often heartbreaking family adventure from a kid’s perspective with just a touch of twisty humor and a large helping of humanity.
