Phoenix Rising by Karen Hesse
Not only was this a fabulous book (takes place in Vermont after a nuclear accident), but the title is just so poetic and beautiful. My grandma lives in Vermont and there was an accident where a local and loved shop got burned down. Outside of the "grave" of the store (the place with all the remains), someone put up a sign saying "Rise like a phoenix" in attempt to spark people to overcome the disaster and rebuild the store. It just gets me every time. :)
