Request #644 from Briana

It’s a young adult book that I read in 2017 or 2018. I’m looking for a book that starts with a break in a family’s house with sketchy people and the parents go and get drugs for these people. It’s about a girl who has to get her little brother ready for daycare. She put on a diaper and tried to find more baby powder in her parent’s room. At the end of the closet, she finds a baby powder container that is a different color but uses it anyway. She accidentally pores baby powder on her baby brother and he plays in it. She laughs and stops him when he starts to eat it. She goes to school and gets called that her brother went to the hospital. While he was at his daycare, he was acting very unusual. when he was at the hospital the doctors said that he had injected cocaine.  Which was the baby powder, and the police get involved and find all types of drugs in the house like in a teddy bear and in the floorboards too. The kids were sent to foster care and were almost separated. At the foster home, the girl falls in love with her foster brother and they get bullied for liking one another.
