They introduce the characters of the novel, "Eadric the Grasper," but each story stands alone.**A short story**Brooke writes "LEAVE THIS PAGE BLANK" on the inside of her yearbook so her best friend has a place to sign. But after the book is passed around at school, she finds that someone else has written there first.
