On cover: Would life be easier if April just learned to fit in?

Summary: I feel like I'm always-- last. Like I'm running to try and keep up with everyone but it's no good. April has always marched to the beat of her own drum, but would life be easier if she learned to fit in? Now that she's in Year 8, things have got even worse. She's much more likely to be trying to rescue an animal in need than worrying about who's dating who at school, which April just finds boring. Plus, her lessons feel like they're in a foreign language, and it suddenly seems impossible to make it through the week without landing in detention. As family worries and classroom romances ramp up, it feels like everyone around her is pulling away-- even her best friend Ben. But when the pressure's on, can she find a way to fit in and still be true to herself? (Publisher)
