- Jeffrey isn't a little boy with cancer anymore. He's a teen who's in remission, but life still feels fragile. The aftereffects of treatment have left Jeffrey with an inability to be a great student or to walk without limping. His parents still worry about him. His older brother, Steven, lost it and took off to Africa to be in a drumming circle and "find himself." Jeffrey has a little soul searching to do, too, which begins with his escalating anger at Steven, an old friend who is keeping something secret, and a girl who is way out of his league but who thinks he's cute.

January 4, 2010
Jeffrey Alper, now in eighth grade, narrates this intense sequel to Drums, Girls & Dangerous Pie
. He is cancer-free now, but leukemia treatment left Jeffrey with a limp and a brain that is “a little scrambled up.” When he learns he will be held back unless he passes a statewide standardized test, Jeffrey panics, then agrees to let Tad, his best friend and fellow cancer survivor, tutor him. But Jeffrey fails the practice test and is dealing with other stresses: his older brother—always his biggest supporter—is unreachable in Africa, his girlfriend won't see him until after the test, and Tad is suddenly missing a lot of school. Jeffrey's honest, humorous narration acts as a counterbalance to the subject matter (when Tad asks if he ever dreamed of doing “something completely magnificent,” Jeffrey answers, “Dude, mostly I just hope I won't forget to zip my pants in the morning”). Even so, this book is packed with emotional highs and lows, and readers will understand the toll cancer takes on victims and everyone around them—even after it is gone. Ages 12–up.

Starred review from January 1, 2010
Gr 6-9-Sonnenblick's "Drums, Girls & Dangerous Pie" (Turning Tide, 2004) told the story of eighth-grader Steven Alper and his struggle to deal with his four-year-old brother's leukemia diagnosis amid the normal drama of being a teen. This sequel is told from Jeffrey's point of view. Now Jeff is in eighth grade and just as he's getting his first girlfriend, wondering why his best friend and fellow cancer survivor is acting so weird, and trying to cope with some post-cancer disabilities, Steven, his rock, has dropped out of college and gone to join a drumming circlein Africa! In a year of emotional and physical challenges, heartache, humor, and love, Jeffrey learns to depend on himself and live life to the fullest. Sonnenblick's intimate first-person tale of survival is a solid stand-alone novel that will leave an emotional, uplifting imprint on readers."Terri Clark, Smoky Hill Library, Centennial, CO"Copyright 2010 School Library Journal, LLC Used with permission.

Starred review from December 15, 2009
Grades 5-8 *Starred Review* Sonnenblicks Drums, Girls, and Dangerous Pie (2005) told the story of eighth-grader Steven Alper, whose five-year-old brother, Jeffrey, is diagnosed with leukemia. Here, Jeffrey is in the eighth grade himself and takes the limelight. His cancer has gone into remission, but thats not the end of it. Treatment is nothing compared to what happens after youve been cured. . . . Being a cancer survivor can be a life sentence all its own. Jeffrey, as well as his best friend, fellow survivor, and devilishly dark humorist, Tad, have all kinds of brain and nerve damage from the intense chemotherapy and radiation, leaving Tad in a wheelchair and Jeffrey with serious concentration problems. But he mostly sweats the smaller stuff: fear of being held back a grade if he fails an impending standardized test; a brother who seems to have abandoned him at the worst possible time; strife at home that he sees as his fault; and, most terrifying, a cute girl who actually likes him. Switching gears back and forth between huge, heavy issues and universal adolescent concerns, Sonnenblick imbues Jeffrey with a smooth, likable, and unaffected voice. Most of all, he recognizes that humor and heart arent ways to lighten a storytheyre there to deliver it. As hilarious as it is tragic, and as honest as it is hopeful, dont confuse this book with inspirational reading. Its irresistible reading.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2009, American Library Association.)

March 1, 2010
With his trademark combination of sarcasm and shameless heartstring-pulling, Sonnenblick continues the story begun in his debut, Drums, Girls, and Dangerous Pie (rev. 1/06). Jeffrey has been cancer-free for over five years now -- which means he's most likely out of the woods -- but that doesn't mean life is perfect. Years of poisonous treatments have left him with some learning disabilities, a particular problem now that the state is making a standardized test a requirement for graduating from middle school; Jeffrey's childhood as the town's cause clbre makes his relationships with peers awkward; and older brother and hero Steven has run off to Africa. Add surly best friend (and fellow cancer survivor) Tad, new girl (and possible girlfriend) Lindsay, and some inspiring (or occasionally bonkers) teachers, and you have the makings of a life-changing year. Sonnenblick explores the emotional and physical aftermath of childhood cancer, ground rarely tread in books for children, with a sensitive but light touch, offering thought-provoking details but keeping the action anchored in family dynamics, first-girlfriend drama, and Tad's irascible, tell-it-like-it-is personality. There's plenty of sentimentality and a few soapboxes, but Sonnenblick's gift for comic exaggeration and snappy dialogue ensures that readers will be drawn in for another deftly plotted tour of eighth grade at its most profound.(Copyright 2010 by The Horn Book, Incorporated, Boston.
