So when Cindy decides they should try out for Movement on the first day of sixth grade, how can Andy say no? But between feeling out of place with the dancers after school, being hassled by his new science partner Jameel in class, and sensing tension between his dad and grandfather at home, Andy feels all kinds of weird. Then over anime, Hi-Chews, and art, things start to shift between Andy and Jameel, opening up new doors—and new problems. Because no matter how much Andy cares about his friends and family, it&’s hard not to feel pulled between all the ways he&’s meant to be, all the different faces he wears, and harder still to figure out if any of these masks is the real him.&“A joy and a journey.&” —Tae Keller, Newbery Award-winning author of When You Trap a Tiger&“Perceptive . . .
