Jillian isn't too crazy about having to go to summer school, but she’d missed too much school while she’d been in the hospital, catatonic. Still, summer school might not be too bad. Aiden was there too. Besides, they had a cool new teacher for the history class, newly out of college, Miss Reece. The teacher has this neat idea for the history class to put a float in the Fourth of July parade. They meet on Saturdays to build it, and Jillian’s dad and Aiden’s mom help too. This might be the best Independence Day ever.
But then Jillian’s grandma goes to the hospital, a worry for Jillian. Her dad drives too fast—what if he gets in a wreck like her mom did? He says Jillian should take driver’s ed—but she doesn’t want to cause any accidents. Plus there’s always that deep-down panicky feeling that she might get sick again. One teenage girl shouldn’t have to carry so much on her small shoulders.
