Sara's Rules to Be Normal1. Stop taking your pills19. Make a friend137. Don't put mayonnaise on peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.Sara wants one thing: to be normal. What she has instead are multiple diagnoses from Dr. Ring. Sara's constant battle with False Alarm—what she calls panic attacks—and other episodes cause her to isolate herself. She rarely speaks, especially not at school, and so she doesn't have any friends. But when she starts group therapy she meets someone new. Talkative and outgoing Erin doesn't believe in "normal," and Sara finds herself in unfamiliar territory: at the movies, at a birthday party, and with someone to tell about her crush—in short, with a friend. But there's more to Erin than her cheerful exterior, and Sara begins to wonder if helping Erin will mean sacrificing their friendship.

Excerpt from Book

Chapter 1: My Happy Family NOTE If you ask a blue whale what she thinks about--if you sing whale, of course--you might be surprised. Most people would guess it was about krill, or ocean currents, or maybe if she was due for some air. But it could also be about her baby who swam off two years ago and whether he found a girlfriend. Or that dolphins are silly. Or maybe that the stars look beautiful tonight, even from underwater. We can't ask her, so we all just kind of assume it's the krill. Do me a favor, even if it is just for this story: Assume it's the stars.
