Life hasn't been easy for fifteen-year-old Andi. When tragedy strikes, Andi runs away, and the Eaton Centre in downtown Toronto seems a good place to call 'home.' But after a few short weeks, Andi realizes life in the mall isn't all she thought it would be. Fifteen-year-old Noah is shocked when he sees a girl in the food court of the mall taking food off other people's trays. Determined to help, he befriends Andi, who in exchange, makes him promise to keep her secret. As Andi's situation becomes dire, both Andi and Noah know she can't keep living like this. Can Noah convince Andi to finally get help? And can Andi convince herself that she not only needs it, but deserves it as well? "The Girl in The Mall" by R. Jetleb is a young adult read that touches on serious social issues such as alcoholism, teen homelessness, and bullying. Equipped with a handy resource page of contacts for teens who may be in trouble, "The Girl in The Mall" is a must-read addition to any young adult library.
