Allie and Bea by Catherine Ryan Hyde
"An adventure between two unlikely people, an older woman in her seventies and a fifteen year old girl. Both are in desperate situations. Bea, basically broke, living and traveling on her own, in her only possession, her van, and Allie on the run from the group home and unsavory characters she encountered after her parents went to jail. Although at odds at first, with Bea’s somewhat crabby disposition and Allie’s naïve but enthusiastic nature, the two continue their undertaking of travel in the West Coast. As the two travel on, an unexpected bond between the two develops.
I listened to the audio and highly recommend the book as well as the audio."
