There's just one problem -- Gage didn't actually have a place to live. How can Ari keep up with school, her best friend, and middle-school applications when she's \"couch surfing\" -- a night here with Gage's friend in a tiny apartment, a night there with Gage's girlfriend and her two roommates -- and even, when necessary, sneaking into a juvenile shelter? Told in an open, authentic voice, this nuanced story of hiding in plain sight may have readers thinking about homelessness in a whole new way.","brand":"Candlewick Press (MA)","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45085654089879,"sku":"9780763694418","price":490.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780763694418.webp?v=1767638271","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/paper-things-9780763694418","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
