(2000)
A novel by

 
 
Charlie Bascomb can't believe that his parents are separating. He is so furious, so determined to change their minds, that he comes up with a plan. It is something no one would ever think he'd do-he's going to run away from home for a few days, to show them what a "broken family" feels like. But things take on a life of their own, and soon he's on the road in a stolen car, with a girl who's really running away . . . and he has no idea how to get back home.

"A fast-moving plot, complex and appealing characters, and an engaging writing style make Charlie's Run a sure winner." (School Library Journal)
