Review

This book is a great read, covering topics such as bullying, the challenges of moving to a new country, family life, and more. It's told from two perspectives, showing how two people with completely different backgrounds can form a valuable friendship. Ravi, who recently moved from India to America, struggles with fitting in and adjusting to the new culture and customs, while Joe deals with constant bullying and an auditory processing disorder. The book is easy to read and understand, but still has a strong and deep message. Both characters feel very realistic, and their stories are well-written, showing how their experiences, personalities, and circumstances influence their thoughts and actions throughout the story, and how those ultimately bring them together. Overall, it's a meaningful story that reflects how understanding and empathy can lead to friendship, no matter how different people may seem.
