Schroeder�s debut novel of Raggedy Ann and the Lost Girl is an engaging and endearing story of how two completely opposite women come together and share a life experience they will never forget. Karen is a middle aged house wife who was fed up with her 3 children and inattentive husband. After a frustrating morning, she decided she had enough and ran from her life with no destination and no plans. While away, Karen meets up with Jessica, a homeless young lady who was taken away from her mother and placed in foster care when she was 8 years old. Karen and Jessica drive across the country in hopes to locate and reunite Jessica with her mother. Together, they share various memorable experiences during their journey which bond these two forlorn strangers to form a friendship that will be never forgotten.
