Description
Caitlin knows there's a lot going on with the world she doesn't like—things like nuclear waste, and the hole in the ozone layer. Why doesn't anyone else seem to care?
A whole new world opens up when she meets Robert, with his ponytail and intense blue eyes. At first Caitlin isn't sure if she's getting involved for the issues or for Robert. But she knows one thing—she's ready to take a stand on something that matters. When the chance arises, she surprises herself with how far she'll go to make the world a better place.
Based on the groundbreaking Degrassi Junior High television series, this book offers a sensitive and engaging look at the challenges of teenage life.
