But when she heads west with high hopes and a barely functional car, she meets the human condition head-on. By the time Taylor arrives in Tucson, Arizona, she has acquired a completely unexpected child, a three-year-old American Indian girl named Turtle, and must somehow come to terms with both motherhood and the necessity for putting down roots. Hers is a story about love and friendship, abandonment and belonging, and the discovery of surprising resources in apparently empty places. \n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003csmall\u003eProduct image is for illustration purposes only and may not be an exact representation of the product offered for sale.\u003c\/small\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Harper Collins, 2009","offers":[{"title":"The Bean Trees A Novel \/ Very Good","offer_id":53250719973668,"sku":"9780061765223VG","price":8.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0714\/9951\/4148\/files\/public_d3cc5d1c-ee7b-4ad2-be4c-8d828ebdbbc4.jpg?v=1781792897","url":"https:\/\/brookingsbooks.com\/products\/9780061765223","provider":"Brookings Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
