    About this ebook

    Wilf is convinced his parents want nothing to do with him.

    When he isn't in school, he is left to his own devices or shipped away to camp. But at fifteen, Wilf is adamant that he is too old for summer camp. When his parents ignore his protests and ship him off anyway, he knows how he will get their attention: He will escape from camp by canoe and spend the rest of his vacation alone in the woods, proving to his parents he deserves his independence. His plan begins to unravel when his cabin mate forces Wilf to take him along. Things go from bad to worse when a younger camper follows them and they all end up in a fight for their lives against the unforgiving river.

      "I just read that whole thing start-to-finish," my husband marveled. It wasn't "Middlemarch." It was a Tribune column about the 1968 Democratic National Convention. But he read it, start-to-finish, on a Sunday morning, which is normally a whirlwind o

      The first day your baby smiles at you is everything. For me, that was even better than the day Billy was born. Maybe because he came three weeks early and was tiny, and having an emergency caesarean was quite traumatic. The day he smiled back at me I

      My year off was also interesting, in that I didn’t feel any less loved, or cherished, or wanted. Why? Because my life is already rich with soulmates, and I got the chance to behold that. You don’t have to shag someone for them to be a soulmate. We do
