Monster Man & Furby (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781612254654)

You don't need super strength to be a hero, just be super kind and accept people for who they are.

Zoe Pinchback was born with a rare condition known as hypertrichosis, which causes hair to grow everywhere on her body. Very intelligent for a twelve-year-old, Zoe is home-schooled and content to hide from the public as much as possible. But when her mother and grandmother are suddenly unable to accompany her on her annual doctor visit to Chicago, she must brave the trip alone.

Faced with her worst fear-being seen, Zoe braces herself for the long train ride and what's sure to be a nightmarish adventure. But fate lends a hand in the form of a funny giant who not only turns the weekend into the best time of Zoe's life, but teaches her two important lessons: she does belong in the real world, and all monsters are not scary.
