Harris has spinal muscular atrophy which requires him to have a wheelchair and
have a nurse always by his side at school. Harris and his family have recently moved
from California to Vermont, which is making it hard to find a new nurse for Harris. All
of the sudden, Miranda, a nursing student who went to Harris’ school, comes into their
life. Miranda is a natural when it comes to caring for Harris and she is hired very
quickly. Everything is going great. Miranda is helping Harris get a girl named Nory at
school, until Harris starts getting into trouble. What will Harris and Miranda do?

I was pleasantly surprised by this book. I wasn’t expecting a new book like this one to
be so good. I thought the storyline was really good, and felt all the elements of the
book were well balanced. This book isn’t my new favorite book, but it is a good read. I
would definitely recommend this book to any teen looking for a book that makes you
laugh right when you pick it up. I thought the cover of this book was really cool, and
felt it depicted Harris’ love of colors very well. Overall, a great book.
