Nobody said New York City was easy, but for Tolley Holtz, itโs home
Tolley Holtz would rather be exploring the city with his friends, talking about the Yankees, and discussing what President Roosevelt is going to do about the Depression than watching his little brother, Bubber. With his mother working all day in a garment factory and his father looking for work in Baltimore, Tolleyโs family depends on him.
ย
But suddenly, things go from hard to unthinkable. When his mother gets pneumonia and canโt leave the hospital, Tolley becomes the only family Bubber can rely on. Afraid that the childrenโs shelter will split them up, the two brothers hop a crosstown bus and strike out on their own, up and down fire escapes, across rooftops, and into the cellars and shadows of New York City. Tolley will need all the street smarts heโs ever learned to get them through the winterโand to hold on to his dreams of having a family again.
