Thirteen-year-old, second-string quarterback Ian McGowan has
serious issues with his life. Everything lately seems like a
catastrophe. In fact, things are so bad that he's certain the world
is ending.
Ian is sure he is all alone in tackling heavy issues: failing
algebra tests, trying to understand girls, relating to his parents,
comprehending current world events, and unwittingly involving
himself in a life-threatening situation. The problem is that nobody
else seems to notice anything is wrong! Ian has no idea what to do
about any of it-and he's sure that no one will understand
anyway-except maybe his best friend who isn't even talking to him
at the moment.
Ian soon realizes that people and situations aren't always what
they appear to be. A new friend may turn out to be someone you've
known all along-without ever really knowing them at all.
