An unforgettable story of family, friendship and ultimately, irrepressible joy. James loves dancing, poetry and Mariah Carey (not in that order, though, because Mariah would be first!). His teacher, Mr Hamilton, is getting married to his boyfriend and it seems that James will be part of a surprise choir performance at the wedding. But James’s father seems uncomfortable about the plan, and a lot of other things like any mention of Mr Hamilton and James’s dancing and how James talks about his new friend Joel.

Meanwhile, a different boy has been harassing James at school and calling him gay and it’s getting worse every day. Can he find the strength to let the truth out?
