So Lonnie & his sister Lili got sepertated to different foster homes when their parents died 3 years ago. So Lonnie decides to write to Lili everyday about his life & feelings. He doesnt give the letters to her he keeps them safe in a box, so he can give them later on to her when they're going to live together. O.S. (FLW)

Peace, Locomotion is a book that teaches you to have faith no matter what life may bring. Lonnie is a twelve- year old boy who is the main character. He has a little sister named Lili. Both of Lonnie and Lili's parents died but, through out this whole book Lonnie will always remember the good times with them. They both live different foster familes which is hard on Lonnie and Lili. Everyday Lonnie writes Lili about what happened in his day. Lonnie has a foster brother in war which makes this book an emotional rollercoaster for the characters and reader. Through out the book Lonnie always is saying "Peace"... Well i guess you will have to just read the cook to find out why Lonnie always says peace.

Lonnie Collins Motion, a twelve-year old boy living in New York, writes letters to his sister, Lili. These siblings rarely get to see each other because they live in seperate foster homes. The letters describe what is going on in Lonnie's life. They are meaningful even though he never sends them. Lonnie's foster family is going through some rough times. Jenkins, his foster brother, is off at war. This puts a lot of stress on his foster mom and her son, Rodney. Will Jenkins return home alive? Will Lonnie's family be torn apart? Lonnie doesn't know the answers, but he never loses hope that he and Lili will be reunited and live together after years of seperation. He never loses hope for peace. S.R.
