When fourteen-year-old TJ and her family are forced to move from their farm to the suburbs she has to give up her beloved horse, Red, but she makes a surprising new friend. Elizabeth is a Little, a six-inch-high punked-out teen with an attitude, who has run away from home to make her way in the world. TJ and Elizabeththe Big and the Littlesoon become friends, but each quickly finds herself in a truly life-threatening situation, and they are unable to help each other. <i>Little (Grrl) Lost</i> is a delightful combination of realism, magic, humor, and hope, and is sure to win Charles de Lint many new teen and adult fans. "The [Newford] books have all been written in such a way that you should be able to pick up any one and get a full and complete story. However, characters do reoccur, off center stage as it were, and their stories do follow a sequence."

The book is set in Newford, though I do not recall seeing the place named explicitly in the text. Fans of de Lint's work will recognize it from place names.
