Summary
When Joseph's life of stealing and running is brought to an end when he is sent to a wilderness-based program, what surprises him the most is the discovery that the open sky is enormous--and full of stars

Nominated for the Manitoba Young Readers Award

Joseph had never known the sky could be so big. But somehow out here in the wilderness everything was clearer. A guy noticed things he couldn't see in the city. Maybe he had just been to busy stealing and running and hiding from the cops to look up. Or maybe being stuck with a bunch of losers and social worker was beginning to get to him. Whatever it was, the sky was huge, and full of stars. The stars were what Joseph liked best.
