“Fly Back, Agnes”
by Elizabeth Atkinson


(NAPSI)—Twelve-year-old Agnes hates everything about her life: her name, her parents’ divorce, her best friend’s abandonment, her changing body. So while staying with her dad over the summer, she decides to become someone else. She tells people she meets that her name is Chloe, she’s fourteen, her parents are married, and she’s a dancer and actor.


But Agnes’s fibs quickly start to complicate her new friendships, especially with Fin, whose mysterious relative runs a local raptor rehab center that fascinates Agnes. The birds heal and fly back home. Agnes, too, wants to get back to wherever she truly belongs, but first she must be honest with herself. From Carolrhoda Books, purchase at
