Things still feel the same on the surface—they’re even making a comic about their friendship—but lately Oliver’s acting like he might be hiding something. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnd then there’s Reuben, the new boy who just moved to town. He doesn’t talk—not ever. The other kids say mean things and call him names behind his back. Gabe knows it isn’t right—but he and Oliver stay quiet, or worse, laugh along with the others just to keep from standing out. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough the character he and Oliver create in their comic adventure, the experience they have babysitting twin toddlers, and with the help of a troublemaking seventh grader who gets sent to their sixth-grade class, Gabe begins to find his voice and become the realest-deal version of his own self. But if he does that—can he still hold onto his best friend, too? \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePerfect for fans of Lisa Graff and Linda Mullaly Hunt, this novel from Lindsey Stoddard, whose stories were lauded as “remarkable” by the New York Times Book Review, will have fans new and old hooked.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Playaway Products","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47914937286888,"sku":"44112","price":65.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0681\/6078\/2568\/files\/9781669665960.png?v=1767053619","url":"https:\/\/educationmegastore.com\/products\/playaway-44112","provider":"EducationMegaStore.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
