Next weekend is Gavin’s birthday. To celebrate, he wants to invite a few friends to eat pizza and see a superhero movie; a classic “good time” for a group of 11-year olds. On his invite list are four of Gavin’s good friends from elementary school and a new kid, Roberto. Roberto and Gavin have become pals playing soccer at recess, and Gavin really wants him to come to the party. But there may be an issue with Roberto being able to go to attend…an issue that both boys hope can be resolved before the big day.

The story is narrated alternately by Gavin and Roberto.
