Thirteen-year-old Gwilym Duckworthy has a good family and close friends. He's learning to play the trumpet and has a job delivering produce. His life is good. Listen opens on Thanksgiving-Gwilym's favorite holiday. It's a day he can spend with his family and friends playing their annual football game and scavenger hunt. What could go wrong? Maybe a call from his mom-the one family member who left them when he was three years old? She is coming to town with her jazz band for a gig at the university. Why has she decided to contact only him? Should Gwilym meet with her without his sister and brother? Does he want to know why she left them? This second book in the Sourland Mountain series delves into the issue of abandonment and how through forgiveness and acceptance the characters find out they are more alike than they think.
