You Only Live Once, David BravoYou Only Live Once, David Bravo

"After eleven-year-old David Bravo wishes for a do-over of a disastrous day of middle school, he and a shapeshifting spirit guide try to right a wrong in his past"--
"Middle school is the worst, especially for David Bravo. He doesn't have a single class with his best (and only) friend, Antoine. He has to give a presentation about his heritage, but he's not sure how -- or even if -- he wants to explain to his new classmates that he's adopted. And after he freezes up at his first cross-country race, causing an accident that leaves Antoine with a busted ankle, he's 100 percent sure he's cursed. David wishes he could do it all over. He doesn't expect his wish to summon a pushy, annoying talking dog who claims to be his new timeline guide. According to Fea, somewhere in his past, David made a choice that put his life on the wrong track. And she can take him back to fix it. David knows exactly what he wants to undo: the accident that hurt Antoine. But when his first try (and the second, and the third) is a total disaster, he and Fea are left scrambling through timeline after timeline, trying to figure out what she's really here to fix -- a quest that may lead them to answers in the most unexpected places." -- Page 2 of cover.
