Have you seen Luis Velez? by Catherine Ryan Hyde
Raymond Jaffe feels like he doesn’t belong. Not with his mother’s new family. Not as a
weekend guest with his father and his father’s wife. Not at school, where he’s an outcast. After
his best friend moves away, Raymond has only two real connections: To the feral cat he’s
tamed and to a blind ninety-two-year-old woman in his building who’s introduced herself with a
curious question: Have you seen Luis Velez? Mildred Gutermann, a German Jew who narrowly
escaped the Holocaust, has been alone since her caretaker disappeared. She turns to Raymond
for help, and as he tries to track Luis down, a deep and unexpected friendship blossoms
between the two.
