Summary


This book is told from two points of views Bryce, and Julianna. The first point of view it is told from is Bryce. Bryce moves to a new town as second grader and the first person he meets is Julianna Baker. Julianna is the second point of view in this book. Julianna is Bryce’s neighbor and is in the same grade as him. The first time Bryce meets Julianna and Julianna meets Bryce is when they are moving into there new house. Bryce and his dad are unpacking the moving truck when Julianna comes over and tries to help, but it worse. While trying to get away from her they end up holding hands and that’s when Juli really starts to like him. From the moment they held hands Juli has been waiting for Bryce to like her, but all Bryce wants is for Juli to leave him alone. Ever since they met in the second grade Juli has been following Bryce around. Now there in fifth grade and Bryce is sick of Juli following him everywhere so he asks out Shelly Stalls thinking Juli would leave him alone, but Juli got rid of Shelly and that made it even worse for Bryce. It’s worse because now Juli even follows him around more to prevent him from asking out anyone else. Now there in the sixth grade and Julianna sits right behind Bryce and starts to smell his hair. She also starts whispering spelling words in his ear which really helps Bryce. In the middle of the sixth grade they cut down a huge sycamore tree that Juli liked very much. After they cut it down Juli was very sad and mad and she started to ride her bike to school, because she didn’t want to be around anyone anymore. Also Juli’s chickens started to lay eggs and she started to give Bryce’s family some eggs, but because Bryce’s family was afraid of getting salmonella Bryce started to throw the eggs away without anyone knowing. Then in the seventh grade Juli found that Bryce was throwing her eggs away after a year and that he was doing it because Bryce’s family thought her yard was a mess she got really mad. Juli decided to show him and started to fix and clean up her yard. After seventh grade and after Juli fixed her yard Juli and Bryce were in the eighth grade. Bryce started to like Juli. Also Bryce was elected to be a basket boy. At the buying of the basket boys Shelly Stalls and Miranda bought Bryce and his basket. Juli bought Jon Burlock and his basket. While Bryce and Juli were having lunch with the people that bought them on they bought. Bryce tried to kiss Juli in the middle of everything, around a whole bunch of people. After that Juli tried to stay away from Bryce as much as she could, and Bryce tried to get to Juli as much as he could to apologize. In the end Bryce doesn’t get to talk to Juli, so instead Bryce plants a sycamore tree in Juli’s back yard.
