Gary Paulsen's books should be on the same shelf as Hinton's THE OUTSIDERS. There's the same gritty reality of kids growing up in less than 'Ozzie and Harriet' families, just doing the best they can.
A Cleveland teenager, Terry Anders, has a problem. Both his parents have run away from home. What should the 14-year-old do now? The only relative he knows of is an uncle 'way out in Oregon . . . So Terry decides he'll head for Oregon to check out this unknown relative.
What Terry learns on the trip makes for a gripping coming-of-age tale.
