Synopsis

In the near future, a group of grade-school students work, study, and play together -- but have never met. That's because they live in different cities around the world, and their scholastic life is entirely mediated by virtual reality. But when an opportunity presents itself, they decide it's time to meet in the "real world."  What follows is a day of surprises and challenges as these students -- who recognize one another only by their on-line avatars -- finally meet and discover who their friends really are.  (For young readers.)
