The first book in the series, Elvis, Me, and the Lemonade Stand Summer, won the City of Victoria Children's Book Prize and the Jean Little First-Novel Award. Winter rains have swept into Eagle Shores Trailer Park, and Truly is happily settling into a new life. A new home with Andy El, the Salish elder who took her in. A new responsibility to look after her new puppy, Gracie. A new passion for playing her not-quite-new guitar — gifted to her by Elvis Presley, the thought-to-be-dead King of Rock 'n' Roll and Truly's pen pal. But then Clarice returns, asking for a second chance at being Truly's mom. Has Clarice really changed? Can Truly ever forgive her? And if so, will she have to give up this new life with Andy El to move back in with Clarice? Truly has a lot to write to Elvis about this winter!
