(2) 4-6 Florida fifth grader Clover finds that her presence is the only thing that eases the symptoms of her best friend's autoimmune disorder. As even that becomes less effective with time, Clover schemes to take Danny to a holistic clinic in Vermont. Haydu balances a ten-year-old's flights of fancy with the pathos of Danny's decline. Ambiguity surrounding Clover's effect on Danny leaves room for interpretation.
