These three unforgettable stand-alone novels from New York Times bestselling author Lynda Mullaly Hunt celebrate unconditional friendship, unconventional families, everyday heroes, and looking beyond the labels, with a healthy dose of humor, heart, and hope.

In One for the Murphys, Carley's life is upended when she becomes a foster child--and is placed in the Murphys' cookie-cutter-perfect household.

In Fish in a Tree, Ally acts out because she is afraid she isn't smart enough--until she discovers that there's a lot more to her than a label, and that great minds don't always think alike.

In Shouting at the Rain, Delsie is having a summer of discovery--finding out who her true friends are and where she really belongs.

Lynda Mullaly Hunt's incredible novels remind us that we all have the power to be someone's hero, that great minds don't always think alike, and that we don't have to weather the storms of life alone.
