"Damian is the new kid at school, and he has a foolproof plan to avoid the bullying that's plagued him his whole childhood: He's going to stop talking. Starting on the first day of seventh grade, he won't utter a word. If he keeps his mouth shut, the bullies will have nothing to tease him about, right? Wrong--his vow of silence just makes him a bigger target, and it doesn't keep his classmates from discovering the many ways that Damian is different. His family doesn't look like the kind you see on TV: His mother is dead, his father is gone, and he's being raised by his grandparents in a low-income household. And he does things that other boys tease him about, like playing with dolls instead of action figures. But if boys can be so cruel, why does Damian have a crush on one?"--Jacket flap.
