They've been together all their lives. And in this small factory town where everyone knows everything about everyone, that's not necessarily a great thing.u003c/pu003e u003cpu003eThere are thirteen desks in the seventh-grade classroom. That's because Renni Dean's father got a promotion, and the family moved to Grand Saintlodge, the nearest big town. Renni's desk is empty, but Renni still knows their secrets; is still pulling their strings.u003c/pu003e u003cpu003eWhen Orchid Mason arrives and slips gracefully into Renni's chair, the other seventh graders don't know what to think. Orchid--who was born in New York City but just moved to Fawn Creek from Paris--seems to float. Her dress skims the floor. She's wearing a flower behind her ear. u003c/pu003e u003cpu003eFawn Creek Middle might be small, but it has its tightly knit groups--the self-proclaimed "God Squad," the jocks, the outsiders--just like anyplace else.

Or will Orchid Mason save them?u003c/pu003e u003cpu003eNewbery Medal and Newbery Honor winner Erin Entrada Kelly explores complex themes centered on family, friendships, and staying true to yourself.
