Description
Joy is ten years old, living in Apex, Nunavut--a
suburb of Iqaluit--and loving life. Her little sister Allashua may be
annoying, but all in all Joy loves living at the top of the world in
Apex. But when Joy begins to notice her parents fighting a lot more than
usual, and her mom staying with her sisters in Iqaluit more than she is
home, Joy's perfect life soon becomes a lot more complicated. As Joy
navigates her parents' separation and its affect on her family, she
learns some valuable lessons about how to cope when life gets tough.
Told in the wry, funny voice of a smart and savvy ten-year-old girl,
this book will appeal to young readers everywhere.(Ages 10 and up)

Advance Praise
"Folger has made a promising beginning to her literary career. As she
continues to hone her narrative skills and clarify her intended
audience, she may play an important role both in articulating Nunavut
culture to outsiders and in helping Nunavut youth adjust to the kind of
stresses Joy so poignantly reports." --Paper Tigers
