Author Matt Wallace delivers a deeply moving story exploring that
first formative friendship, navigating challenging family
circumstances, and finding hope and strength in a forgotten desert
town. Perfect for fans of Ernesto Cisneros and Julie Murphy. The
isolation and bullying Stan suffers at school are nothing compared
to the war at home. After he tries and fails to defend his mom by
standing up to his abusive father, Stan decides there is only one
solution to finding a new self-confidence: he must learn how to
fight. Tragic events have split the two sides of Elpidia's family
into fighting factions. Every day she finds herself outnumbered by
her cousins on the schoolyard. After the latest beatdown, her
grandmother decides Elpidia must learn how to defend herself. Stan
and Elpidia seem like total opposites, but when they both wind up
with the same reclusive trainer, they find an unexpected friendship
as they work together to overcome their bullies. But when Stan
gains the attention of a powerful gang leader, it threatens to pull
him away from his new best friend. Will their dreams for the future
be enough to get them out of this small town?
