THE BALLAD OF KNUCKLES McGRAW

  
  Orca Book Publishers

ISBN 9781554692033

When Kevin Mason finds himself stuck in a foster home with a pierced and tattooed teenager named Ice and a mute girl named Breezy, he takes refuge in his fantasy of becoming Knuckles McGraw, a tough cowboy roaming the plains on his legendary horse, Burlington Northern.

But not even the fastest horse in the world can stop Kevin from wondering will happen to him if his mother doesn’t come back.

 "My name is not Kevin Mason any more,” he yells. He grabs the door handle and tugs at it. But it is one of those cars that locks a person in, when all he wants to do is take off on his horse across the open plains until the night falls and it’s time to make camp under the glittery stars.
