In middle school, he has friends, routines, and the kind of ordinary life that feels permanent when you are young. But with high school looming and childhood beginning to slip quietly from his grasp, Tony starts to realize that growing up is not just about getting older, it’s about figuring out who you are, where you belong, and what parts of yourself you’ve been too afraid to claim.\u003cbr\u003e As the months unfold and new neighbors enter his life, Tony’s relationships deepen, drawing him into a season of change that alters the way he sees the people and world around him. Slowly, he begins to understand that home is not something you inherit whole, but something you build over time, piece by piece, through memory, tradition, and the steady love of family and friends.\u003cbr\u003e Set against the backdrop of an almost-forgotten 1980s boyhood, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhere We Belong \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eis a warm, nostalgic, coming-of-age novel.
