Eleven-year-old Joe's mother skips bail and disappears, leaving him and his grandmother in poverty and without a stable home. He gets by with comic-book superhero thinking and help from friends.

Ellie has been fat-shamed since she was little, by bullies at school and even by her own family. She follows 'fat girl rules' to take up less space until a new friend and a therapist help her start to push back.
