Twelve-year-old Annie ponders the many rhythms of life the year that her mother becomes pregnant, her grandfather begins faltering, and her best friend (and running partner) becomes distant. A novel written in free verse.
"Annie tiene doce años: le gusta correr descalza con su amigo Max, pasar tiempo con su abuelo y dibujar. Pero las cosas están cambiando: Max siempre está enojado, su abuelo está perdiendo la memoria y su mamá está esperando un bebé. Mientras realiza su tarea de arte -- dibujar la misma manzana durante cien días --, Annie descubre que puede adaptarse a los cambios, un latido a la vez."--Publisher's description.

Work Description
Run run run.That's what twelve-year-old Annie loves to do. When she's barefoot and running, she can hear her heart beating . . . thump-THUMP, thump-THUMP. It's a rhythm that makes sense in a year when everything's shifting: Her mother is pregnant, her grandfather is forgetful, and her best friend, Max, is always moody. Everything changes over time, just like the apple Annie's been assigned to draw. But as she watches and listens, Annie begins to understand the many rhythms of life, and how she fits within them.
