"Storytelling at its finest."
-- Terry Fallis, two-time winner of the Stephen Leacock Medal for Humor
Sixteen-year-old ace knitter and equation wiz, Bliss Adair, runs the
Help Desk at her parents' yarn store and has no difficulty solving the
most challenging math problems. But she discovers that helping her
friends isn't anything like fixing a knitting mistake or prepping for a
math contest. Should she get involved when giving advice could get her
into trouble? But what if she doesn't? And does the first rule of
knitting - don't look too far ahead - always apply to life?
For Bliss, coming of age means sorting out the complex threads of all
sorts of situations in this contemporary read about friendships,
mathematics, yarn, and love.
