"Uprooted" is the beginning of a series that introduces Megan, a twelve-year-old girl whose life is suddenly turned upside down. One day, the police arrive at her house, her parents are taken away, and she's placed into foster care with the Peters family.
Megan struggles to adjust to her new life with strangers, navigating a world of school, social norms, and even faith, which are all foreign to her. She grapples with the uncertainty of her parents' situation and the fear of her new environment, while also discovering simple joys and kindness she's never known.
This first book explores Megan's initial experiences in foster care, her developing relationships with the Peters family, and the beginning of her journey to understand herself and her place in the world after being unexpectedly uprooted from everything she knew.
