Descriere The Things We Miss - Leah Stecher

\nMagical and heartbreaking! You will read this book in one gulp. - Jennifer L. Holm, New York Times-bestselling author of The Fourteenth Goldfish \n \nWhen You Reach Me meets Starfish in this heartfelt contemporary middle grade about a misfit girl who finds a way to skip all of the hard parts of life. \n \nJ.P. Green has always felt out of step. She doesn't wear the right clothes, she doesn't say the right things, and her body...well, she'd rather not talk about it. And seventh grade is shaping up to be the worst year yet: notorious bully Miranda O'Donnell won't stop offering unsolicited diet advice and her mom keeps trying to turn J.P. into someone she's not. \n \nWhen J.P. discovers a mysterious door in her neighbor's treehouse, she doesn't hesitate before walking through. The door sends her three days forward in time. Suddenly, J.P. can skip all the worst parts of seventh grade: Fitness tests in P.E., oral book reports, awkward conversations with her mom...she can avoid them all and no one even knows she was gone. \n \nBut can you live a life without any of the bad parts? Are there experiences out there that you can't miss? \n \nThis moving middle grade novel about mental health, body acceptance, and self-confidence asks what it truly means to show up for the people you love--and for yourself.\n
