How could someone like Mick die? He was the kid who freaked out his mom by putting a ceramic eye in a defrosted chicken, the kid who did a wild dance in front of the whole school--and the kid who, if only he had worn his bicycle helmet, would still be alive today. But now Phoebe Harte's twelve-year-old brother is gone, and Phoebe's world has turned upside down. With her trademark candor and compassion, beloved middle-grade writer Barbara Park tells how Phoebe copes with her painful loss in this story filled with sadness, humor--and hope. Chosen by Publishers Weekly as one of their Best Books of 1996. "A full-fledged and fully convincing drama" (Publishers Weekly).

"I also love Fantasy series’s such as Percy Jackson and the Olympians and Keeper of the Lost Cities"

"I read this book as a kid twenty years ago, and I read it again today. The impact was the same, regardless of the decades between reads. A heartbreaking/humorous read, and most definitely recommended."
