(2) YA Grandits playfully channels a teenage girl's dreams, anxieties, and pet peeves in these concrete poems. Across the thirty or so poems, Jessie reveals she's a vegetarian, plays volleyball and cello, and can't stand cheerleaders. In turn feisty and insecure, Jesse leaps off the page. By book's end, she's removed some bricks from "The Wall" that divides her likes and dislikes.
