Tillerman Cycle

Homecoming, the first book in the Tillerman Cycle by Cynthia Voigt, tells the story of four siblings - Dicey, James, Maybeth, and Sammy Tillerman - who are abandoned by their mentally ill mother in a mall parking lot. The children, led by the eldest sister Dicey, embark on a journey to find a new home. They face numerous challenges, including limited resources, the threat of separation by social services, and the struggle to stay together as a family. Their destination is the home of a great-aunt in Bridgeport, but upon arrival, they find she has passed away. The siblings continue their journey to their grandmother's house in Crisfield, Maryland, where they hope to find refuge. Throughout their travels, the children demonstrate resilience, resourcefulness, and a strong bond. The novel explores themes of family, responsibility, and survival, as Dicey takes on the role of caregiver and protector of her younger siblings.
