"Sharp and funny. Gunderson taps into a buoyant spirit ... the
touching 'barbaric yawp' (Whitman's phrase) of these two deeply
engaging kids." The Washington Post Housebound by illness, Caroline
hasn't been to school in months. Confined to her room, she has only
social media for company. That is until classmate Anthony bursts in
- uninvited and armed with waffle fries, a scruffy copy of Walt
Whitman's poetry and a school project due the next day... Caroline
is unimpressed, but an unlikely friendship develops and a seemingly
mundane piece of homework starts to reveal the pair's hopes and
dreams - as well as a deep and mysterious bond that connects them
even further. Finalist for the Susan Smith Blackburn Prize, 2014.
This new Modern Classics edition features an introduction by Julie
Felise Dubiner.
