He'd always been a girl inside, just not on the outside. Jacob understands fifth grade will be interesting for both of them. It's not going to be easy. He worries about the class tough guy and a teacher who makes everybody miserable. He thinks about the girl he secretly loves and if he'll have the courage to talk to her.
