EN SAVOIR PLUS Résumé

It’s the summer of 1989, and Mia is on her own—adjusting to life without her ex-best friend, Lara.

Summer vacation starts off well enough as Mia binges MTV and learns how to jar fish with her aunty and uncle. Then her grandma starts feeling unwell. At first, Mia isn’t too worried, but when a call comes in from the clinic to say her grandmother has to go to the hospital in Vancouver, everyone realizes this is serious.

Mia and her mom and aunties head to the city to be by her grandmother’s side. Mia mostly ping-pongs from the hospital to the motel, but she also gets to see some of the city and eat (too much) takeout. She even joins a basketball camp at the Friendship Centre, where she meets a teen coach who inspires her to get back into the game she loves and delve deeper into what it means to be Indigenous. As time passes, Mia’s grandmother's health doesn’t improve, and she has to face the fact that her beloved grandma might not get better.

The epub edition of this title is fully accessible.

Praise for Kim Spencer's Weird Rules to Follow:

?“Readers will be left with a rich image of Mia’s world and the family and people that surround her as well as a strong sense of how culture and class impact people’s experiences. A touching exploration of identity and culture.”—Kirkus Reviews

Key Selling Points

  • In this follow-up to the acclaimed Weird Rules to Follow, Mia's summer has just begun when her beloved grandmother is sent to the hospital in Vancouver. Mia and her mom and aunties head to the city to be with her, leading to a summer of exploration, family, self discovery and loss.
  • This book explores the power of intergenerational relationships and the grief of losing a grandparent, as well as the pain but inevitability of growing beyond certain friendships.
  • Kim has once again sensitively captured the perspective of tween Mia and gives us a meaningful next step in her journey, as she experiences this coming-of-age summer, listening to and learning from the family around her, and discovering her own strength and the strength of her Indigenous roots.
  • As with Weird Rules to Follow, Mia's experiences are loosely based on the author's own life, and that authenticity comes through in the characters, relationships and story vignettes.
  • Kim Spencer's debut middle-grade novel Weird Rules to Follow won the 2023 TD Canadian Children's Literature Award, the 2023 Geoffrey Bilson Award for Historical Fiction, the 2023 Jean Little First Novel Award, the 2023 IODE Violet Downey Book Award and the 2024 Pacific Northwest Book Award. She also has a picture book, Springtime in Kitkatla, coming out with Orca in Winter 2026.
