The town has to decide what and who they are willing to support by the end of the novel.I really liked this novel and readily turned each page. She’s the only one who can understand how Dan feels. Meg and Dan become friends because Meg already lives at Dignityville because everyone in her family has a job, but all of the money goes to her father’s cancer bills. Many people at Dignityville have jobs, but they are homeless because of many other reasons. The argument presented in the book is whether money or people are more important. Dan doesn’t really understand either.Many people in town want Dignityville to be destroyed because they feel their property will lose value. His friends try to be supportive, but they don’t understand. Needless to say, Dan is embarrassed, but he learns that hunger and sleep can overcome embarrassment. Living with his uncle doesn’t work out, so they move to the tent city that the city has allowed for the homeless, named Dignityville. Dan discovers that they must now officially move out of their home. During the economic downtown, Dan’s parents lose their jobs and are unable to get work that would pay everything. An excellent realistic novel, No Place, follows Dan as his family becomes homeless.Dan is a great athlete and a really good pitcher who is planning on a scholarship to Rice University.
