A devastating tornado tears apart more than just houses in this striking novel in verse about a girl rebuilding herself.

Before the storm, thirteen-year-old Quinn was happy flying under the radar. She was average. Unremarkable. Always looking for an escape from her house, where her bickering parents fawned over her genius big brother. 

     Inside our broken home / we didn’t know how broken / the world outside was.



But after the storm, Quinn can’t seem to go back to average. Her friends weren't affected by the tornado in the same way. To them, the storm left behind a playground of abandoned houses and distracted adults. As Quinn struggles to find stability in the tornado’s aftermath, she must choose: between homes, friendships, and versions of herself.

       Nothing that was mine / yesterday is mine today.

Told in rich, spectacular verse, Caroline Brooks DuBois crafts a powerful story of redemption as Quinn makes her way from Before to After. There’s nothing average about the world Quinn wakes up to after the storm; maybe there’s nothing average about her, either. This emotional coming-of-age journey for middle grade readers proves that it’s never too late to be the person you want to be.

Soft and Perfect for Small Pets
Size: 22''L x 13''W x 1.5''Th, Color: Blue
This little bed mat is super soft and cozy, and my cat took to it right away. The size is perfect for a crate or just laying around the house, and the star design is really cute. I like that it has an anti-slip bottom so it stays in place, and it’s easy to throw in the wash when it needs cleaning. It’s lightweight but still has enough cushion for small dogs or cats to nap comfortably. A great value for a simple, comfy pet bed.

Perfect Pad for My Pet Stroller
Size: 22''L x 13''W x 1.5''Th, Color: Grey
I bought a pet stroller that didn’t come with a pad, and I was worried I wouldn’t find one that fit. This bed turned out to be the perfect pad for the stroller! It fits just right and works well for that purpose. However, if you’re planning to use it as an actual bed, it is too thin on its own. Great as a pad, but not thick enough to be a standalone bed.

Kitty Loves It!
Size: 22''L x 13''W x 1.5''Th, Color: Pink
This kitty pad is so cute! I wanted a pad for my kitty's window seat, and this was the right size and I loved the color and stars. It worked great and my kitty loves the fluffiness and comfort. She lays on it every day in the sunshine. It did well in the wash, too.

Soft fleecy fabric but mat is thin
Size: 30''L x 19''W x 1.5''Th, Color: Grey
Got this for a cat who likes to sit on a chair and sheds everywhere - she loves it, and it covers the whole seat of the chair. Fabric is soft and cozy, but the mat is pretty thin and wouldn’t add a lot of comfort to a hard floor or crate
