Gilly Hopkins has seen more than her share of foster homes and has outwitted every family she has lived with. In an effort to escape her new foster mother Maime Trotter's endless loving care, Gilly concocts a plan that she believes will bring her mother running to her rescue. But when the ploy blows up in Gilly's face it threatens to ruin the only chance she's ever had to be part of a real family.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Moving submitted by DL on June 16, 2017, 8:15pm Great story about believing in someone and being a part of a family.
Touching and true to the book submitted by jessicampace on August 1, 2018, 9:45am I loved this portrayal of a classic book from my childhood. I don't have experience with the foster care system, but the pain and hope and love that this book and movie show give a glimpse into it and what good people can do to make it better.
TERRIBLE MOVIE submitted by Lulu123 on June 29, 2019, 4:00pm terrible I could not finsh the movie
So Good! submitted by gracekil on August 14, 2019, 1:07pm The movie was good, and followed the book pretty well. Got me interested in the importance of fostering children.
