Paperback. When Joey's cousin visits for the summer and decides they should climb the highest mountain in California to honor their late grandfather, Joey must confront not only his own physical limitations, but also his changing friendships, his buried grief from traumatically losing his grandfather, and his self-limiting beliefs. Twelve-year-old sweat-averse Joey is psyched for his summer of relaxation and perfecting his butt-shaped indentation on the couch. Sure, he wishes that his best friend, Xander, wasn't always busy with his new cross-country team, but Joey is certain that Xander will still have plenty of time for the things they love: watching Italian soccer, making homemade pasta with Joey's Nonna, and debating the merits of their favorite superheroes. But Joey's summer plans are upended when his perfect older cousin, Leo, comes to stay at his house for the summer. Leo is the kind of guy who runs marathons and jumps off cliffs. Hanging out with Leo is dead last on Joey's list of Ways I'd Like to Spend a Day, partly because the two cousins have a tense history that goes back to the death of their Nonno. But now, Leo's training to climb the highest mountain in California, and he wants Joey to do it with him. The plan is nuts-Joey usually avoids climbing stairs, so seriously, a mountain? But somehow, he's roped into hiking with Leo anyway, which is how he accidentally learns Leo's secret: His cousin has young-onset multiple sclerosis. So newsflash: This climb will most likely be his cousin's final adventure, and he needs Joey's help to do it. With Xander spending more time with his new running friends, Joey's mom on his back about being a good family member, and Leo's disease slowly progressing, Joey feels the pressure building. And as the hikes get harder, Joey must confront not only his own physical limitations, but also a friendship he thought was unbreakable, his feelings for a girl who's way out of his league, and a changing relationship with his cousin that will test his strength-and courage-in ways for which he's not prepared. AGES: 10 to 15 AUTHOR: At age eight, Erin Fry wrote her first book in an orange spiral notebook, and she's been writing ever since. That first book never made it to print, but a few others did, including Losing It, Secrets of the Book, Undercover Chefs, and most recently, Joey the Good-which was inspired by her own hike up Mt. Whitney in 2013. A former middle-school teacher, she now shares a home office in southern California with her dogs Berkeley and Fitzgerald. When she isn't writing and editing curriculum or books, she can be found with a crochet hook or paintbrush in her hand, playing that day's New York Times games, or traveling with her husband to whatever far-off city her kids currently call home. When Joey's cousin visits for the summer and decides they should climb the highest mountain in California to honor their late grandfather, Joey must confront not only his own physical limitations, but also his changing friendships, his buried grief from traumatically losing his grandfather, and his self-limiting beliefs.

Acerca del autor
Erin Fry began her career as a middle school educator but now works from home as a full-time writer alongside her favorite canine coworkers, Berkeley and Fitzgerald. She is also the founder of 2-4-1 Books where fiction and fact love to meet. She is the published author of four novels for young readers, including her debut novel Losing It. She believes wholeheartedly that stories have the power to connect, inspire, and help us understand the world a little better.
When she isn’t writing, she loves to crochet, paint, and swim. She lives in Southern California but travels frequently to visit her three kids who never seem to stay in one spot in the world for long. In 2013, she hiked Mount Whitney in one day, and counts it as one of the most difficult and rewarding things she’s ever done.
