Last Meeting of the Gorilla Club

A moving middle grade novel about childhood anxiety and grief, from the author of The Secrets of Blueberries, Brothers, Moose & Me, now in paperback Eleven-year-old Josh Duncan has never had much luck making friends--not the real kind, anyway. Moving to a new town is supposed to be a chance to leave behind the problems that plagued Josh at his last school. Problems like Big Brother, Josh´s favorite and best friend. Because, as Josh´s parents tell him, he´s too old to still have imaginary friends. But even before the first day of school is over, Big Brother reappears--and he´s not alone. Only this time one of Josh´s imaginary friends seems to be interacting with another boy at school, Lucas Hernandez. Can Lucas see them, too? Brought together by an unusual classroom experiment and a mysterious invitation to join something called the Gorilla Club, Josh and Lucas are about to discover how a unique way of seeing the world can reveal a real-life friend.
