First, he changed his name to Kale, then he started working
on dreadlocks, and now he’s decided it’s time to find a cause. It’s all a part of Kalin’s plan to implement
his new Hippie lifestyle. Everyone knows
you can’t be a hippie if you don’t have a cause. So Kale joins REHO (Rights for Every Human
Organization), an all-encompassing group intent upon paving the way for all
causes related to the human species.
Unfortunately, Kale really can’t admit to the group that his only reason
for attending is for the sake of finding his own cause. But thankfully he’s saved by a distraction
which spares him from having to admit his hippie failings. That’s where Kale and Julian meet for the
first time. Julian is still working on
finding his way to becoming who he always believed himself to be, a girl. When Kale and Julian meet they are just two
floundering kids trying to find purpose and make sense of their lives. And that’s where it all begins. Author Mia Kerick breathes life into the
characters of this coming of age tale which is peppered with witty accounts
interspersed with genuinely heartfelt moments of self-realization. The author skillfully addresses very relevant
topics with sparkling clarity in a way that will be relatable to a YA
audience. Recommended for home and
