“An honest portrayal of a family in transition” — Kirkus Reviews “Markovits nails the feelings of this awkward tween as he navigates his parents’ impending divorce while discovering where he belongs.” — Booklist "Spot on and often quite funny observations of parental bumbling and middle-grade folkways. Readers will appreciate [Ben’s] growing realism about the complicated dynamics of families.” — Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books "The author paints a realistic picture of a family in transition and their nuanced emotions as they figure out a new normal. A moving coming-of-age story that will bring hope to those going through times of transition." — School Library Journal
