Lost in the Sun

From the author of A Tangle of Knots and Absolutely Almost,a touching story about a boy who won’t let one tragic accident define him. Everyone says that middle school is awfulbut Trent knows nothing could be worse than the year he had in fifth gradewhen a freak accident on Cedar Lake left one kid deadand Trent with a brain full of terrible thoughts he can’t get rid of. Trent’s pretty positive the entire disaster was his faultso for him middle school feels like a fresh starta chance to prove to everyone that he’s not the horrible screw-up they seem to think he is. If only Trent could make that fresh start happen. It isn’t until Trent gets caught up in the whirlwind that is Fallon Little?the girl with the mysterious scar across her face?that things begin to change. Because fresh starts aren’t always easy. Even in baseballwhen a fly ball gets lost in the sunyou have to remember to shift your position to find it.
