Description
When a group of teens is pulled into an unexpected community project, they discover that communication isn’t just about words—it’s about listening, trust, and the courage to be honest. As relationships shift and loyalties are tested, the story follows their efforts to connect with one another and with the natural world, using a mix of humor, tension, and heartfelt insight to reveal what it means to belong. With Chris Crutcher’s signature blend of realism and emotional candor, the novel explores themes of identity, empathy, and the ways people learn to speak up when it matters most. Told with momentum and compassion, it’s a coming-of-age journey that turns everyday moments into lessons about understanding others—before it’s too late.
