Jake Schwartz is not looking forward to middle school.
Puberty feels light years away, he's not keen on the cool
clothes or lingo, and he has the added pressure of preparing
for his bar mitzvah. The only saving grace is that Danny
Uribe, his lifelong best friend, will be by his side....
Or will he? Since Danny's summer growth spurt, there's been
a growing distance between him and Jake. Danny is excited to
explore all that junior high has to offer--especially the
girls (and most notably Hannah, Jake's older sister). But
gang life has its allure, and he soon finds himself in over
his head. Meanwhile, Hannah is dealing with her own problems; being
Queen Bee is not easy. The other girls are out for blood,
and boys are so...exhausting. Danny surprises her with his
maturity, but can her reputation survive if she's linked to
a sevvy? And what would Jake think about his sister hooking
up with his best friend? Dororthy Wu could not care less about junior high drama. She
is content staying in her bedroom and writing epic stories
of her adventures as a warrior mermaid maiden. But that
changes when she discovers the school's writing club. There,
she meets a young lad with heroic potential and decides that
life outside of her fantasy world just might have some
appeal. In the course of one year at San Paulo Junior High, these
four lives will intersect in unique and hilarious ways.
Friendships will grow and change. Reputations will
transform. And someone will become a man.
