Deported is every kid’s worst nightmare. Lula Mae Smith Gifford’s world is turned upside down when four armed men dressed in black leather jackets suddenly take the twelve-year-old’s father away from home. Her dad never said much about his family or background, but always promised one day to take Lula back to his own country. This powerful novel tells about the people who helped shape Lula’s young life and the two years that follow. Her family was living the American dream until the night that the men came. The bravery this teen demonstrates after her dad is deported is a thriller by itself. Her mother describes Lula as 'stubborn as an Irish bull, but a carbon copy of Nancy Drew.' Lula can’t understand how someone could be deported if he’s an American citizen. She turns all her efforts into unraveling the whereabouts of her father in this mystery that keeps you guessing all the way to the very end.About the Author Shirley Gerald Ware credits her love of writing to her ninety-seven-year-old mother, 'for telling wonderful stories to me and my five brothers when we were growing up in South Carolina. Now retired, I plan on writing a book every year.' Deported is her sixth book and she is currently writing the sequel, On the Run. She lives in Medford, Massachusetts.
