School of Possibilities by Seita Parkkola
My name is Sortm and I am twelve. To be twelve is like an eight-vehicle car wreck. It's like being stuck upside down on a roller coaster. I am starting a new school this fall call the School of Possibillities. It's my last chance. If I fail, I will be sent to the School of the Lost, which is a lot like prison. After that, there is nothing. I don't intend to fail.

The Outside of a Horse by Ginny Rorby
