Description
David wants nothing more than to be accepted by the school’s cool crowd, so he joins a cruel prank aimed at an elderly woman rumored to be a witch. After she appears to curse him, a string of humiliating mishaps convinces David that his life is unraveling—and his former friends are quick to make him the next target. As he finds unexpected companionship among fellow outsiders, David must confront the pressures of popularity, the consequences of cruelty, and the courage it takes to become his own person. With sharp humor, vivid characterization, and empathy for the awkwardness of adolescence, this coming-of-age novel explores friendship, guilt, and self-acceptance.
