Talk about unlucky sevens. An hour ago, seventeen year old, seven months pregnant Novalee Nation was heading for California with her boyfriend. Now she finds herself stranded at a Wal-Mart in Sequoyah, Oklahoma, with just $7.77 in change. But Novalee is about to discover hidden treasures in theis small Southwest town--a group of down-to-earth, deeply caring people willing to help a homeless jobless girl living secretly in Wal-Mart. From Bible-thumping blue-haired sister Thelma Husband to eccentric librarian Forney Hull who loves Novalee more than she loves herself, they are about to take her--and you, too--on a moving, funny and unforgettable journey to Where the Heart Is. Book from Oprah's book club....also had a movie made out of it. Great book!!!
