When his parents announce they’re moving out to the middle of nowhere- a tiny town by the name of “Petersville”- he feels like the life he once knew is over. ![]() The Doughnut Fix by Jessie Janowitz focuses on Tristan, a Jewish 12-year-old from Brooklyn. ![]() ![]() When Tristan and his family move from the amazing city of New York to the old, middle of nowhere town called Petersville, Tristan feels like his life is over.
