True (...sort of)

Katherine Hannigan has such a great writing style.  She mixes serious topics with a touch of humor and makes you laugh one minute and cry the next. 

Delly meets Ferris, who meets Brud.  Delly needs a friend.  Ferris won't talk.  Brud wants to play basketball.  Put these three together and you get quite the story.  If you like this one--also try, Ida B. I'm a huge fan!
