Description
Seventh-grader Jason Herkimer is trying to navigate the strange new territory of adolescence while pursuing a date with Debbie Breen. As he lurches through school mishaps, family changes, friendships, and increasingly unpredictable impulses, Jason wrestles with pimples, embarrassment, ambition, and the uneasy gap between childhood dreams and teenage expectations. With humor, candor, and an energetic first-person voice, the novel captures the awkwardness, confusion, and emerging self-awareness of growing up—while exploring friendship, divorce, identity, race, family, and the vast questions of life and the universe.
