Two starred reviews!

From the acclaimed author of Roll with It comes a winning, cathartic joy ride (Publishers Weekly, starred review) of a middle grade novel about three kids with big diagnoses, bigger personalities, and one outrageous plan to team up and scam a wish-granting foundation.

Violet Marino doesn't want sympathy. And she definitely doesn't want friends. She just wants to play soccer and deal with the whole slowly-going-blind thing on her own terms.

Then she witnesses a boy choke on a hot dog at a hospital picnic. Enter Wyatt: dangerously charming and full of terrible ideas, especially for a kid with a newly transplanted heart. Add sharp-as-a-blade Noor, who is always armed with excellent snacks she can't eat, thanks to chemo. Other than their illnesses, the three don't have much in common--except for the fact that a wish-granting foundation keeps calling.

Ever the optimist, Wyatt has a plan: team up to game the foundation, even if it means faking friendship. One wish is fine, but three sick kids on three epic adventures? That's history-making. The scheme starts off as a distraction. But soon the stakes feel real. Because when you finally let someone in, there's more to lose.
