With a couple of starred reviews, don’t miss this humorous, poignant, and original recent story about bullying, broken friendships, social media, and the failures of communication between kids. From John David Anderson, creator of the acclaimed Ms. Bixby’s Last Day.

In middle school, words aren’t just words. They are able to be weapons. They are able to be gifts. The right words can win you friends or make you enemies. They are able to come back to haunt you. From time to time They are able to change things ceaselessly.

When cell phones are banned at Branton Middle School, Frost and his friends Deedee, Wolf, and Bench get a hold of a new way to communicate: leaving sticky notes for each other all over the school. It catches on, and soon all of the kids in school are leaving notes—though for every kind and friendly one, there is a cutting and cruel one as well.

In the middle of this, a new girl named Rose arrives at school and sits at Frost’s lunch table. Rose is not like anyone else at Branton Middle School, and it’s clear that the close circle of friends Frost has made for himself won’t easily hold another. As the sticky-note war escalates, and the pressure to select sides mounts, Frost soon realizes that after this year, nothing will ever be the same.
