Seventeen-year-old, seven months pregnant Novalee Nation is abandoned by her boyfriend at a Wal-Mart in Sequoyah, Oklahoma, with only $7.77 in her pocket. With nowhere to go, she secretly begins living in the store, eventually giving birth to her baby there. Novalee discovers unexpected kindness and a sense of belonging in the small Southwest town, as a group of down-to-earth, caring people—including Sister Thelma Husband and the eccentric librarian Forney Hull—rally around the homeless, jobless girl. The novel follows her emotional and funny journey as she rebuilds her life and finds where her heart truly belongs.
