However the messes are often more noticeable than her creations and Jaycie's family doesn't always appreciate her creative process. Jaycie's best friend - her older brother Joel - is leaving soon for college. Joel is the one who understands Jaycie the most. When he's gone who will goof around with her admire her latest work and make her smile when she's sad? </span></p><p><br></p><p><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1); background-color: rgba(0 0 0 0)>When Jaycie's surprise going-away gift for Joel is ruined she embarks on a journey where she gently learns how to navigate her emotions in the midst of change.
