by Leah Stecher (Author)
In this heartfelt follow-up to her critically acclaimed novel The Things We Miss, Leah Stecher explores the pressure of living up to perfection.
When Evie Steinberg's family moves right before seventh grade, she promises her dad that she'll make sure everything goes perfectly. Maybe if she keeps her promise, he'll finally forgive her for accidentally ruining the biggest moment of his cryptozoology career last spring. Perfect means taking care of her little sister, fitting in at her new school, and never complaining or causing problems. Perfect definitely doesn't mean being bullied by a girl who's turning the whole school against her and failing math class. Evie needs to fix her life before anyone finds out she's struggling. When she uses her cryptozoologist skills to figure out the real reason her bully decided to target her, Evie realizes that she holds the key to fixing everything. She just needs proof. But how far is Evie willing to go to reveal the truth? This tender and imaginative middle grade novel combines a fast-paced plot and reluctant reader appeal with explorations of perfectionism, people-pleasing, and bullying.Author Biography
