A lyrical novel about family and friendship from critically acclaimed author Benjamin Alire Sáenz.
Aristotle is an angry teen with a brother in prison. Dante is a know-it-all who has an unusual way of looking at the world. When the two meet at the swimming pool, they seem to have nothing in common. But as the loners start spending time together, they discover that they share a special friendship—the kind that changes lives and lasts a lifetime. And it is through this friendship that Ari and Dante will learn the most important truths about themselves and the kind of people they want to be.

When I saw this book covered in award stickers I absolutely had to read it and find out why. I was not disappointed! This is a coming of age story that has such a delicate, beautiful and real way of approaching the issues of growing up and self identity which, really, we are all still experiencing no matter our age. - Megan (QBD)
