Book Description

Sometimes finding yourself can be a little messy.Elliott has been struggling since starting middle school, when his ADHD spiraled and his best friend moved away. He's not too sure where he fits in with his own family, either, especially since his newly remarried dad and stepmom are expecting a baby. Especially when he already feels like his dad just doesn't get him - or his passion for cooking. In the kitchen, it's actually a good thing to have a brain that goes in six different directions at once.When he's paired with the popular and supersmart Maribel for a school-wide project, Elliott worries they won't see eye to eye. But Maribel is also looking for a way to show others her true self, and this project could be the chance they've both been waiting for.Sometimes the least likely friends help you see a new side to things... and sometimes you have to make a few mistakes before you figure out what's right.
