"I can't let go of them - the good, right things-because if I do I'll turn into a cloud and I'll float away, and a storm will come and blow me to nothing." Aster attends a school for gifted kids, but she doesn't think she's special at all. If she was, her mother wouldn't have left. Each day Aster must do a good, right thing-a challenge she sets herself, to make someone else's life better. Nobody can know about her 'things', because then they won't count. And if she doesn't do them, she's sure everything will go wrong. Then she meets Xavier. He has his own kind of special missions to make life better. When they do these missions together, Aster feels free, but if she stops doing her good, right things will everything fall apart?
"Kate Gordon's writing in 'Aster's Good, Right Things' is at times so authentic that it makes you wince with the pain and anguish of it all, but ultimately wraps you up in immense beauty and goodness. I LOVE this book." Megan Daley, author of Raising Readers
