Summary
12-year-old Will likes two things: turtles and the local nature preserve. Everything else is a nightmare, because Will has a facial difference that has earned him an unfortunate nickname. But when Will meets RJ, who is confined to a hospital room, each boy discovers they have strength to lend the other and that life is too short to live in a shell
