Three adopted seventh graders form an unlikely club in this funny and heartfelt multiple-perspective story written by three acclaimed authors. Alex and Jude have an unspoken rule: even though they’re both adopted, they don’t talk about it. Alex, a transracial adoptee in a wealthy, mostly white suburb, is still figuring out where he fits—and where he doesn’t. When things get complicated, he retreats to building worlds he can control with Legos, especially with his beloved Plastic Engineers club. Jude lives with his grandmother, who took him in after his dad died, and he feels like a constant reminder of their loss. He focuses his energy in Tarot cards and prefers hanging with the cafeteria workers to other kids. Then Kiera shows up. Confident, curious, and totally unafraid to say what everyone else is thinking, Kiera doesn’t follow their rules—especially the one about staying quiet. So when a well-meaning teacher starts an “Adopted Club,” she’s all in, even if Alex and Jude would rather be anywhere else. But as the three of them are pushed together, their carefully guarded stories start to slip out. What they discover might be scary, complicated… and exactly what they’ve been needing all along.
