In the book Waiting For Normal, there is a young girl named Addie that lived with her mother and father. Unfortunately, Addie's father died when she was at the age of three and she was left in the care of her unstable mother that had a bipolar disorder. Years later, Addie soon welcomed the thought to her mother marrying a very stable and reliable man named Dwight. Dwight completely switched their world around and the newly-wed parents decided to have two more children. Happily, the family remain calm and stable. Due to the mothers bipolar disorder, she demands that her and Dwight split up and that he immediately moves out. Meanwhile, Dwight decides to take custody of the two younger daughters but not Addie. Considering Addie's mother was never financially stable or mentally stable, she wasn't able to keep the house. In result of her losing the house, Addie and her mother are forced to move into a trailer because that is all they can afford. Addison then befriends nearby neighbours that work at the gas station that encourage her to be happy. Taking the advice of her kind friends, Addison began playing the recorder which gave her plenty of happiness even though she suffered from dyslexia. Unfortunately, she was always stuck with her mother unlike the times when she dissapeared for days.
