Title: An account of following a dream, however risky
Review: In the early 1990's, one young couple decide to chuck it all and set off across America in an Ultra Van. Along the way, they hoped to sell their paintings and, with luck, find a home for themselves. What they couldn't foresee were the hardships, strokes of luck and unknown adventures that awaited them - from near starvation when the money ran out to the strokes of luck that come their way. Luckily, Dori DeCamillis managed to chronicle it all in vivid, impossible-to-put-down language, making the whole trip come alive for the reader. This one has a permanent space on my bookshelf, along with My Side of the Mountain, Swiss Family Robinson, The Boxcar Children, Breaking Clean and other classic memoirs of life lived outside the realm of normal and conventional.
