Middle Grade Books 

Wilhelmina Shisbey is unlucky Number Thirteen—the thirteenth person in the world to be documented with something called H-SAM (Highly Superior Autographical Memory.) For Willa, every crummy day of her loser life is as vivid as the last, beginning the moment her birth mother dumped her off at an orphanage, one day after her first birthday.

But after a few rough starts at her new middle school, Willa’s luck finally begins to change when she becomes friends with super smart Marley Applegate, editor of the troubled school paper, and intentional under-achiever Cody Cassidy, the hottest boy at Triton Middle School.

 

Surviving middle school is a fulltime job. But when a new student arrives on campus—a boy with cerebral palsy confined to a wheelchair—it’s up to Willa to prove to her classmates that it just might be cool to be kind.
