As a former foster kid, he knows people can up and leave without so much as a goodbye. Ben prefers to spend his time with the characters in his favorite sci-fi books...until he rescues an abandoned mutt from the alley next-door to the Coney Island Library. Scruffy little Flip leads Ben to befriend a fellow book-lover named Halley--yes, like the comet--a girl unlike anyone he has ever met. Ben begins thinking of her as \"Rainbow Girl\" because of her crazy-colored clothes and her laugh, pure magic, the kind that makes you smile away the stormiest day. Rainbow Girl convinces Ben to write a novel with her. But as their story unfolds Ben's life begins to unravel, and Ben must discover for himself the truth about friendship and the meaning of home.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Puffin Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45088358039703,"sku":"9780147510068","price":420.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780147510068.webp?v=1767641605","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/when-friendship-followed-me-home-9780147510068","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
