Description

In this fun middle grade adventure, a young girl named Lin Moser and her two new friends brave the wilderness to find a castle, prove a local legend, and discover the true meaning of home. Lin is not looking forward to the summer in Newbridge, New Jersey as she's used to traveling the country with her house-flipping parents. But when she learns about an ancient ruined castle in the woods that no one has been able to find, she sees it as a quest and an opportunity to create her own adventure, hoping it might bring her mom home. With humor and heart, Jess Rinker delivers a story of adventure and growing up in The Hike to Home.
