(3) 4-6 Twelve-year-old narrator El has just had the best first day at her new Manhattan school when she gets bad news: her little sister, Echo, has a rare and fast-growing cancer. The novel documents El's sadness, fear, anger, and loneliness as she and her family struggle to cope. Although there are lighter moments, the tone is quite dark as the book confronts significant grief head-on.
