From Alice To Zen And Everyone In Between

When Alice moves to the suburbs, her new neighbour Zen tells her that there’s no way she’ll fit in unless she acts “more like a girl”. Alice would rather play soccer than go to the mall. Zen would rather read fashion magazines than play soccer.

At first she doesn’t care that she’s not like all the other girls, but then she begins to realize that being different can set you apart and that having a friend like Zen can set you way apart.

This honest and funny novel is all about figuring out who you really are and learning to accept that everyone is different.
