He doesn't like the way Niklas brags, behaves like a jerk and lies. Niklas is one of life's tall people and next to him, Sander always ends up feeling small.But Sander is different in more ways than one. He notices things other people miss, and he's noticed something about Niklas...A moving coming-of-age classic, about fitting in, standing out and the power of friendship.
