Twelve-year-old Bea divides her time between her divorced parents’ New York City apartments. Her father and his partner Jesse are planning a wedding, and Bea hopes Jesse’s daughter Sonia might become the sister she has always wanted. At the same time, Bea’s many worries worsen her chronic eczema. She worries about her mother, her relationship with Sonia, conflicts at school, and spelling tests. Bea sees a therapist but is not entirely candid, especially about occasions when she has been cruel to other children without adults noticing.
