Powerful Quote
"You're different. And i'm different too. Difference is good, but being different is hard. Believe me, I know". Not everyone is alike, it's okay to be different. People often thinking being different is a bad thing and feel very upset or depressed about it, but it just makes you unique.

I recommend this book to anybody in High School and above. It's an amazing book and i'm sure many kids or anybody in this world can relate to at least one thing in this book.
