William loves to play Monopoly with his two best friends. The familiar quirks in their weekly games simultaneously comfort and annoy Will. He eats his pizza a certain way. He is my sole mate when it comes to jelly beans! He loves black jelly beans and his little sister drops black jelly beans one by one into the waste basket to annoy him.

There is a major science discovery which affects his emotions in the beginning, and nobody else seems to care. His two friends kiss at a star party, which his younger sister becomes disappointed that it is a gathering to see through microscopes/ not famous people.

I was given a copy before completely previewed by harper collins publishing, for which I am extremely grateful. My 14 year old son and his 8th grade teacher are both charmed by this story. There is a hospital involvement, and Will realizes a friend is closer to his own sister than Will happens to be. her love for him brought me tears, and I hope all the American school teacher realize the potential of this book. I highly believe this is Jerry's most into his character's feelings I have read so far in his brilliant career.

This book is set to be published the spring of 2008.

Liked your review. It's cool that you were given a copy before completely previewed by Harper Colllins Publishing. How did that happen?
