(2) YA Ever since discovering her older brother dead in his bedroom, Kaia speaks to no one. When an unspeaking, ragged "wild child" appears at school, Kaia befriends him; gradually, his companionship brings back her own emotional warmth and engagement. Kaia tells her story through a series of ostensible journal entries; her clean, uncluttered mode of expression makes this British import a quick and accessible read.
