Stevie is 11 and gets very interested in whales, dolphins, and all kinds of sea creatures. She lives alone with her mother and sits with two boys, one of whom she has known since she was little, and a girl, Chloe. She really thinks Chloe is nice and she doesn't like Andrew, who she's known forever, "like that". When she talks to or looks at Chloe she feels a "fizz" in her chest. What does that mean? She's not sure and she doesn't know how to tell her mom, so she goes to the library to find a book about it.
Written in verse this book explores a girl struggling with her crush on a girl. It doesn't go very deep and is pretty surface just dealing with her feelings and trying to understand herself. Mom and others are very accepting.
