Ben Y struggles with school, life, and gender identity after her older brother’s death. She finds solace in her friendships, video games, and the indefinable Ace. But when she starts getting chat messages from her dead brother, her deepest secrets are suddenly exposed. Told through different writing styles–online chatrooms, art, verse, and news articles–this story celebrates different types of intelligence while exploring friendship, family, and personal identity.

Part of the The Kids Under the Stairs series

Ben B, Ben Y, Jordan J, and Javier are divergent thinkers. They struggle with reading, but with the help of Ms. J., they band together to take over the school newspaper, deal with social-emotional troubles, and embrace their different types of intelligence. This funny, clever novel-in-verse series tells honest, heartfelt stories about friendship, family, and personal identity that will encourage struggling readers to embrace their own ‘divergent’ self.
