When Gemma's dad is mistakenly arrested for housebreaking, she is forced to go on the run. With her hair cut short, she passes herself off as a boy called Jimmy Scar, hiding out with an eccentric old woman who teaches her self-sufficiency. Why does Gemma feel so at home with her, and will she manage to clear her dad's name? Although all is resolved in the end, this is a book that leaves readers with plenty to consider about integrity. Jeanne Willis' many books for children include I Want to Be a Cowgirl, Susan Laughs, and the Dr. Xargle series.
