Plot summary
Mo's reflection has never matched the bodies of the kids around him, and a genetic condition called Marfan syndrome explains why. He wants the same things as everyone his age: to fit in and to not stand out. The condition means that things which come easily to others will not come easily to him, and that a major heart surgery lies ahead. Around Mo on the south shore of Long Island are parents who support him, a brother who makes him laugh and friends who give him somewhere else to be. His days hold school, the doctor's office, parties, girls, getting stoned and thoughts about God.
