Perché è così facile sbagliarsi sul conto degli altri, fraintendere le loro parole, crederli diversi da quelli che sono? E perché capita tanto spesso di indossare una maschera e raccontare bugie grandi e piccole per farsi credere diversi da quelli che si è? Finché, dopo mille equivoci e dopo aver perso il sonno per il timore di essere antipatici a tutti, bastano un momento di sincerità e un gesto gentile per incontrarsi davvero. Ed è proprio così che succede a Chloë, Sinead, Jasmi, Nick e Sanjay, cinque ragazzi diversissimi e con un sacco di problemi: timidezze coinvolgenti, storie d'amore disastrose, ma anche padri combinaguai e madri convinte che i maschi siano il diavolo. Per fortuna che, una volta diventati amici, la vita sembra tutta un'altra cosa.

Zábavnú atmosféru dopĺňa intergalaktický slovník a bravúrne komentované ilustrácie.
