"Every year, more than 2.5 million children are left homeless in the United States and the number of such families continues to rise annually. In every state, children are living in small quarters packed in with relatives-- in cars, in motel rooms, or in emergency shelters. In this vividly-written narrative, experienced journalist Richard Schweid takes us on a spirited journey through this "invisible nation,' giving us front-row dispatches of suffering families on the edge. Based on in-depth reporting from five major cities, Invisible Nation looks backward at the historical context of family homelessness as well as forward at what needs to be done to alleviate this widespread, although often hidden, poverty. Invisible Nation is a riveting must-read for everyone who cares about inequality, poverty and family life"--Provided by publishe

This is a story about a seventeen-year-old teenager named Sharon Knowles, a senior in high school, who has an eighteen-year-old boyfriend named Andrew Stipes, also a senior in high school. During an uncommon moment of passion between the two, Sharon becomes pregnant, and this pregnancy becomes the defining moment in her young life. Three weeks later Andrew is killed in a snowboarding accident along the Rocky Mountain Continental Divide and Sharon is forced to make important decisions without him. But life goes on, as it must, and she eventually defeats the feelings of guilt, loneliness, and low self-esteem that surround a young person in her predicament. She marries several years later, but the untimely death of her husband during the Colorado Big Thompson flood puts her back in the throes of loneliness again. Then life rebuilding begins slowly, and with the passage of time and the support of friends around her, she learns to live again. This is not a children's story.
