Who will claim Orchid Mason? Who will save Orchid Mason? Or will Orchid Mason save them? She's wearing a flower behind her ear.įawn Creek Middle might be small, but it has its tightly knit groups-the self-proclaimed "God Squad," the jocks, the outsiders-just like anyplace else. Orchid-who was born in New York City but just moved to Fawn Creek from Paris-seems to float. When Orchid Mason arrives and slips gracefully into Renni's chair, the other seventh graders don't know what to think. Renni's desk is empty, but Renni still knows their secrets is still pulling their strings. That's because Renni Dean's father got a promotion, and the family moved to Grand Saintlodge, the nearest big town. Clothing that is too tight or too loose is not appropriate for school. Clothes must be the appropriate size, with the waist of garment worn at student’s waist. Shorts/skirts must be mid-thigh or longer. There are thirteen desks in the seventh-grade classroom. Shirts (including T-shirts) must be tucked in. And in this small factory town where everyone knows everything about everyone, that's not necessarily a great thing. There are twelve kids in the seventh grade at Fawn Creek Middle School. From Erin Entrada Kelly, the winner of the Newbery Medal for Hello, Universe and a Newbery Honor for We Dream of Space, this contemporary school story set in small-town Louisiana is about friendship, family, deception, and being true to yourself and your dreams.
