Pictures of Hollis Woods

Pictures of Hollis Woods is a heartwarming tale that captures the essence of belonging and family. Meet Hollis Woods, a twelve-year-old orphan who has never known a true family. Her life has been a series of foster homes, each one blending into the next.

But everything changes when she is placed with Josie, an elderly artist who is both quirky and affectionate. Josie needs Hollis just as much as Hollis needs her. Together, they form an unlikely bond, filled with laughter, art, and understanding.

However, as Josie becomes more forgetful, the threat of being separated looms large. Hollis is determined not to let anyone come between them. She plans to escape the system once more, this time with Josie by her side.

Amidst these plans, Hollis's mind drifts back to memories of a summer spent with the Regans, a family that truly cared for her. She captures these cherished moments in her art, fixing each special memory in pictures she'll never forget.

Patricia Reilly Giff masterfully weaves a story that emphasizes the importance of artistic vision, creativity, and, above all, family.
