- W4229487411 abstract "Reviewed by: What I Carry by Jennifer Longo Deborah Stevenson, Editor Longo, Jennifer What I Carry. Random House, 2020 [336p] Library ed. ISBN 978-0-553-53772-7 $20.99 Trade ed. ISBN 978-0-553-53771-0 $17.99 E-book ed. ISBN 978-0-553-53773-4 $10.99 Reviewed from galleys R Gr. 8-10 Naturalist John Muir has been a lifelong touchstone for seventeen-year-old Muiriel, who was so named for being born at the John Muir Medical Center and who has found Muir's writings a constant in a childhood moving from foster home to foster home. Now she's in her last year before aging out of the system, and she's placed in her final foster home, on a beautiful Washington island. There she's thrilled to find work at a local wilderness camp and surprised to find herself making good friends, bonding with her foster mother, and embarking on a budding romance. Longo, herself a foster parent, gives eloquent voice to Muir, as she's nicknamed, who's not the troubled kid of foster folklore but a capable girl who's absorbed the message Never be needy. Never be a burden and who just wants to keep her head down until she can make a life of her own at eighteen. It's no surprise to fans of orphan stories old and new that Muir eventually realizes she's found a home, but the combination of authentic detail about the foster experience and respect for the protagonist makes this a particularly satisfying iteration.
