Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
After more moves than they can count, Isa's family finally puts down roots. People in town are afraid of the abandoned orchard behind their home, but Isa and her sister Junie are happy to have acres of land to explore.But when Junie gets sick, Isa's mom falls into a depression, and medical bills force Isa's dad to work more. No one notices that Isa's clothes are falling apart and her stomach is empty.Out of frustration, Isa buries her out-grown sneakers in the orchard. The next day a sapling sprouts buds that bloom to reveal new shoes. Can Isa use this magical tree to save her family?
While her sister Junie, six, is in the hospital fighting cancer, Isa, an eleven-year-old loner, feels forgotten until a magic tree helps her whole family to heal.-- Provided by Publisher.
