I read this book probably between 1991-93, so when I was 10-12 years old, and it was definitely for young readers. Short novel. It was written from the perspective of the younger sister of a teenager who ran away from home. It describes the fear and grief the rest of the family goes through not knowing where their daughter/sister is. If I'm not mistaken, she is found in the end and comes home. This is really as much as I remember, but the book left a lasting impression and I actually want it around my house for my kids to read because I think it prevented me from running away from home once or twice! ;)
Amy's sister Carrie has run away from home, but Amy is the one who feels that everything is falling apart. She struggles with anger, jealousy, and fear as she faces the truth that she may never see her sister again.
