Faith, Hope, and Ivy June

Phyllis Reynolds Naylor
Description
What happens when two girls from vastly different worlds are asked to live together and share their families? Ivy June Mosley and Catherine Coombs are about to find out. They are selected for a seventh grade student exchange in Kentucky. How different can school in Kentucky be? Catherine lives in an upper middle class family and goes to a private school for girls, while Ivy June lives with her grandparents because her parents can't afford to keep her, so deep in the woods that there is no phone service or plumbing. Why would girls from such different backgrounds volunteer to exchange? Their families and friends are skeptical. Will they have anything in common? Read this California Young Reader Medal nominee to find out.
