On the run from an abusive boyfriend, Wolff and his mother got off a bus in the Seattle area, and tried to make a new life in western Washington. This image of a Concrete, Washington welcoming sign reminded me of the book. I think that maybe when arriving, Wolff and his mother feel welcomed to the idea of a new life in this new place.

How do you think they feel when they first arrive in Washington? Scared/excited/nervous?

  1. I would assume that they felt nervous but at this point in the story they are used to moving. By the end of the story they are extremely used to meeting new people.
