Suddenly Rural Girl
Facing Life, Death, Mean Girls, and Cute Boys in Rural America
Dann & Kennedy Hurlbert
 
About the Book:
After her dad is tragically killed, Dakota Moore's mom moves her to northern Minnesota where Dak discovers an outcast classmate may be a reclusive miracle worker. She thinks she found him too late. The truth is, she met him just in time.
 
Now, tucked into a secluded A-frame near a beaver-infested creek with her strong Sioux mom and a lisping little brother, Dak faces a new school and a trio of mean girls. Seemingly alone, she buries herself in a design app and self pity until an old blind man, his curly-haired horse named Eyeballs, a quirky dragon-doodling classmate, and a strawberry blonde with delicious sun-kissed freckles give her four reasons to keep on living.
 
But will Dak discover the miracle worker's secrets before the next tragedy strikes?
