"Jerry Spinelli has created another middle grade masterpiece." —BookPage, starred review
On Dead Wednesday, every eighth grader in Amber Springs is assigned the name and identity of a teenager who died a preventable death in the past year. The kids don black shirts and for the whole day everyone in town pretends they''re invisible—as if they weren''t even there. The adults think it will make them contemplate their mortality. The kids know it''s a free pass to get away with anything.
Worm Tarnauer feels invisible every day. He''s perfectly happy being the unnoticed sidekick of his friend Eddie. So he''s not expecting Dead Wednesday to feel that different. But he didn''t count on being assigned Becca Finch (17, car crash). And he certainly didn''t count on Becca showing up to boss him around! Letting this girl into his head is about to change everything.
This is the story of the unexpected, heartbreaking, hilarious, truly epic day when Worm Tarnauer discovers his own life.
