Just trust us when we say that Phoebe's mother is full of juicy secrets. This book is too good for us to spoil all of its surprises. And, well, we could tell you what happens and what she's been up to, but we're not going to. Also, she misses her farm in Bybanks, like whoa.Įventually, Phoebe's mother comes back home. She enjoys having this mystery to work on, because it helps distract her from how much she misses her own mother. Phoebe's family is kind of stiff and proper. While in Euclid, Sal makes friends with Phoebe Winterbottom, a girl with a vivid, vivacious imagination. When this happened, Sal's dad decided to rent out their farm in Bybanks, and he and Sal moved to Euclid, Ohio. Her mom recently left her and her dad, and we don't know why. Sal is a thirteen- year-old farm girl from Bybanks, Kentucky. As you can see, there are lots of delicious stories wrapped inside of other delicious stories here.īut let's rewind a bit and give you some background information. Over the course of the trip, Sal tells her grandparents about her friend Phoebe's own missing mother. In the car, they are headed west to find Sal's mother in time for her mother's birthday. Salamanca Tree Hiddle tells us about a road trip she recently took with her grandparents (Gram and Gramps Hiddle) from Ohio to Idaho.
