True (. . . Sort Of)

Resumen del libro

Delly is a fast-talking mischief maker. Ferris is a traveler and a loner, with a special affinity for animals. Delly is trouble. Ferris is in trouble. And their friendship, unexpected as it is, is true and real and transcendent.

In her first novel since the national bestseller Ida B, Katherine Hannigan tells Delly's story, and Ferris's story, but mostly she tells the story of Delly and Ferris, two fifth graders who discover that friendship can change everything.

"Compassionate and powerful."-Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

Delly is a fast-talking mischief maker. Ferris is a traveler and a loner, with a special affinity for animals. Delly is trouble. Ferris is in trouble. And their friendship, unexpected as it is, is true and real and transcendent. Katherine Hannigan's exquisite new tween novel, her first since Ida B, tells the story of two friends (and a third, a boy named Brud, who is a basketball fanatic) and the small town that witnesses their escapades and salvation. As she did with Ida B, Katherine Hannigan invites readers to experience characters and a story that they won't soon forget. Perfect for readers ready to move on from Junie B. Jones.
