Leap Day

Sometimes Josie wonders what other people are thinking, and in this uniquely constructed novel, readers "leap" into the minds and viewpoints of Josie and everyone around her as she goes through her day. Josie learns that birthday surprises, play auditions, and the all-important initiation at the lake may be the things that define her today, but what defines her tomorrow and in the days to come are the people that touch her life at every moment. This fascinating and surprising novel, now in paperback, is full of everyday imaginations and truths in the life and future of one everygirl teenager.

Wendy Mass is the author of A Mango-Shaped Space. She wanted to be an astronaut but decided her carsickness was not a good trait for that career, so she became a writer instead and hasn't looked back since. Leap Day is her second novel.
