review 1: After reading Spare Change, I was very excited to read Jubilee's Journey. This story did not disappoint. This is a great story about bad timing and how it can really create an inaccurate perception. In this case, Jubilee's brother, and all she has in the world, finds trouble and the story is really great how it unfolds. You are really rooting for this family and just when you think you know what is going to happen, there is a new twist you didn't see coming. I highly recommend.
review 2: A truly fantastic read. Tradegy strikes a West Virginia Coal mining family. First the Mother die's and Paul the son is left to take care of Jubilee and their father. When the father is killed in a mining accident. The owners of the mine say they can't stay on in the house
