early thoughts on The Wanderer by Sharon Creech

Almost immediately I see how this book is from the same place as Creech’s other Newbery winner “Walk Two Moons”. A quick shift in the sixth chapter reveals that this story is told by a very unreliable narrator and that this is a story where the journey is not just an epic sea voyage, but also an uncovering of the truth. Similar to Walk Two Moons.
If I taught children’s lit,Sharon Creech would be a whole course.
