Shaunta Grimes The Astonishing Maybe Paperback Book

Friendship, heartbreak, and defining what family means are rarely as sensitively, beautifully portrayed in middlegrade fiction as they are in The Astonishing Maybe by Shaunta Grimes, an extraordinary new talent. Gideon hates the idea of moving to Nevada from the East Coast. Its so empty and hot in his new neighborhood. Only one person his age lives nearby the girl next door, Roona. Gid notices right away that Roona is . . . different. She wears roller skates and a blanket as a cape when she needs to feel strong. What he doesnt bargain for, however, is how far outside his comfort zone Roona will take him as she enlists his help in finding her longgone father. For a kid whos not allowed to ride his bike more than a few blocks from home, this will be the adventure of a lifetime. | Shaunta Grimes The Astonishing Maybe Paperback Book
