Alone. That's how Justin feels these days. There's not much left for him to do but to put his brain in neutral and slide into the state he calls "the Big Nothing." "Serious and humorous by turns, this seemingly simple story is actually quite complex but not weight and will be enthusiastically embraced." School Library Journal (starred review)
