βIβm so stupid. I barely have a brain at all.β LΓ©onard knows he isnβt like the other kids in his class, and he understands all too well that the world can be relentlessly cruel to those who are different. Sometimes LΓ©o wishes he could go far away, to beautiful Glen Affric in the Scottish Highlandsβwhere his fierce older brother, Jorge, lives. He dreams of being reunited with Jorge, who will protect him from the torments of his daily life.
But sometimes dreams can turn into nightmares . . .
