{"product_id":"educating-simon-9780758284761","title":"Educating Simon","description":"Everything sixteen-year-old Simon Fitzroy-Hunt loves is in England. There's his school, his boyfriend, his cat, and especially Oxford University, which Simon plans to attend just as his beloved late father planned. But all of Simon's certainties come crashing down when his mother remarries and drags him to Boston with her. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFurious and unforgiving, Simon finds plenty to resent in America. His stepsister, Persie, is overindulged by her father and struggling with Asperger syndrome. And Simon's school project--coaching a young student for the national Spelling Bee--hits a complication when eleven-year-old Toby makes a confession: there's a girl trapped inside his body, and her name is Kay. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHelping Kay find her way begins changing Simon too, opening him to different perspectives, revealing a strength that's gone untapped until now. And as the life he's known, and the future he envisioned, slips further away each day, he realizes he can either lose his direction entirely, or forge a new--and perhaps even better--path. . . \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003ePraise for the novels of Robin Reardon\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Real and honest.\" --VOYA on \u003ci\u003eThe Revelations of Jude Connor\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Mesmerizing. . ..A rare book that will appeal to young adults and adult readers alike.\" --\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly \u003c\/i\u003eon \u003ci\u003eThe Evolution of Ethan Poe\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kensington Publishing Corporation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/29\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780758284761\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 375\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.50w x 1.10d","brand":"Robin Reardon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39955809403061,"sku":"9780758284761","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_f9486147-7d2e-488b-aded-8958f676a783.jpg?v=1620217614","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/educating-simon-9780758284761","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
