And when they’re asked to make another adjustment – when his father remarries and his new wife becomes pregnant – Skye finds that some changes are too much to handle. Following the death of their mother, Skye and her brother, Tavish, have adjusted to live with a single parent. The Haverill family has been turned upside down in the last year.

But in the annals of Canadian history, October 7, 1825, is the date of one of our greatest national disasters. Commended for the 2009 Best Books for Kids & Teens For Skye Haverill and her family, it begins as an ordinary day.
