CBC Showcase: Learning about Families
A warm, quirky story of family, friendship, loyalty, and loss from an award-winning Irish author making her American debut.
by Siobhan Parkinson
Eleven-year-old Jake likes thinking, encyclopedias, and football. And fish. Although he's not so sure about everything else—especially girls, or little sisters, or stepdads. But an unlikely friendship with eccentric Stella Daly helps him figure out some of it. That is until a tragedy changes everything, even the way he thinks about himself.
