When Momma abandoned Dicey Tillerman and her three siblings in a mall parking lot and was later traced to an asylum where she lay unrecognizing, unknowing, she left her four children no choice but to get on by themselves.
They set off alone on foot over hundreds of miles until they finally found someone to take them in. Gram’s rundown farm isn’t perfect, but they can stay together as a family—which is all Dicey really wanted.
媽媽先是在購物中心停車場拋下黛西．堤勒曼和她的三個弟妹，後據說媽媽被關入精神病院，不但認不得人且變得一無所知，四個孩子別無選擇，只能自力更生。
孩子們徒步走了數百英里，最後終於找到棲身之處。雖然外婆的破舊農場並非十全十美，但是大家可以像家人一樣待在一起，就是黛西真正想要的一切。
