Maya — Kathryn Ellis

A job and a boyfriend. That's what Maya's after this summer. Work isn't easy to find when you're in a wheelchair, but Maya has determination and that's worth a lot.

She finds a job at Slurps--a local Degrassi hangout. And she goes out on her first real date ever--with Kirk, one of the waiters. But nothing is ever simple. The job turns out to be more than Maya bargained for, and Kirk has a mysterious side that he doesn't want to share.

Based on the groundbreaking Degrassi Junior High television series, this book offers a sensitive and engaging look at the challenges of teenage life.
