Teen homelessness is not always connected to poverty and crime. Sometimes there's more to the story. No Known Address follows a teen named Tyler from a privileged family in Victoria, British Columbia, who is kicked out of his home by his abusive dad after being blamed for bringing prescription narcotics to a party. This novel brings to light the serious nature of verbal and emotional abuse and how difficult it is to be understood and access support in such circumstances.
STEVEN BARWIN is a teacher and the author of Trap Jam and Cold Grab in the Lorimer SideStreets series. He has also written several sports novels. Steven lives in Thornhill, Ontario.
"Emphasis is placed on keeping the plot moving, making it a good choice for reluctant readers."
"A thought-provoking problem novel about a teen’s journey to find a safe place to call home."
