Description
Kirby "Zig" Zigonski lives for the world of simple circuits, light bulbs, buzzers, and motors. Electronics are so much more predictable than people. So when his dad's visit is canceled with no explanation and his mom seems to be hiding something, Zig turns to his best friend Gianna and a new gizmo--a garage sale GPS unit--for help. Convinced that his dad is leaving clues behind, Zig sets out to search for answers. Following one clue after another, logging mile after mile, Zig soon finds that people aren't always what they seem . . . and sometimes, there's more than one set of coordinates for home.
Brimming with warmth that will capture readers' hearts, The Exact Location of Home is a must read for middle-graders.

It's no surprise that Kate Messner's magic pen could write a charming, moving, funny, and ultimately very surprising story about a magic pencil!
