Cathy Carrâs Lost Kites and Other Treasures is a moving and heartfelt middle-grade novel about mental illness, the transformative power of art, and the ever-changing complications and joys of family life.
"Sincere and funny . . . leaves readers with a sense of hope." âSara Zarr, author of A Song Called Home
"Will be treasured by readers everywhere
." âMegan E. Freeman, award-winning author of Alone
Twelve-year-old Franny Petroski never lets anyone know how often she thinks of the charismatic, troubled mom who left her years agoâany more than she talks about the unaccountable things Mom did while she was still in the picture. Life with Nana is safe and secure, and Frannyâs innovative art projects fill in any lonesome times.
 
But when Nana has an accident and Frannyâs estranged uncle comes home to help out for a while, some long-guarded family secrets come to light. Franny has to use all of her courage, as well as all of her creativity, to come to terms with the discoveries she makes about her motherâand herself.
