Seventh grader Calli has moved a lot as her widow mother searches for the perfect man. In St. George, Utah, Calli's popular neighbor, Jinsong, is fascinated by Calli but reluctant to befriend her at school, where Calli's Tourette syndrome garners unwanted attention. This affecting novel of growing friendship and self-awareness is told from alternating perspectives: Calli's in verse and Jinsong's in prose. Author's note included.
