(2) YA Sixteen-year-old Ben, impaired by cerebral palsy, believes that nobody wants to deal with him and his disability. When drugged-out Colleen, a classmate, falls asleep on his shoulder during a showing of Bride of Frankenstein, Ben determines not to let this chance at human contact slip away. The first-person narrative, related in Ben's witty voice, is part angst-ridden teen romance, part coming-of-age story.
