<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>"Sharp and funny. Gunderson taps into a buoyant spirit...the touching 'barbaric yawp' (Whitman's phrase) of these two deeply engaging kids." Washington Post</b> <p/>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... <p/>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. <p/>Finalist for the Susan Smith Blackburn Prize, 2014. <p/>This new Modern Classics edition features an introduction by Julie Felise Dubiner.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Sharp and funny.
