Winner of the brand new England Book Honor for Fiction A tale that tugs at the heartstrings...Thirteen-year-old Katie is new to her Missouri town, living together with a stern, inaccessible daddy following her mother's loss of life. Unable to easily fit into at school, she forges alliances where she can: With her housekeeper, with a pimply fellow misfit named Cynthia, and with the gorgeous Taylor, who gets her kicks out of shoplifting. Most frustrating of all is Katie's imperfect companionship with the proprietor of an area gas stop, a handsome twenty-three-year-old who stocks her love of checkers but doesn't returning her crush.
