What is The Boy Who Steals Houses about?
Fifteen-year-old Sam has spent years protecting his autistic older brother, Avery, after their family abandoned them. With nowhere safe to go, Sam secretly breaks into empty houses to give them shelter. But when a family unexpectedly returns, they mistake him for a friend of one of their children and welcome him inside. As Sam grows close to the chaotic household—and to Moxie—he begins to imagine a real home. Then his carefully hidden past catches up with him.
