Tells the story of Punda, a narcissistic and arrogant white horse closely associated with Farasi, a brown-skinned and dilligent horse. After a sudden lion attack, Punda's arrogance leads her to King Anansi's palace, resulting in capture and mistreatment, causing her skin to blister and get injured. Farasi, hiding and concerned for his friend, infiltrates the palace, freeing Punda. The duo successfully escapes, but burdened by shame, Punda leaves the group and discovers an oasis, where she builds a new life with Dube. Over time, their descendants create the unique species known as "Bontsebra" recognized for black stripes, loud voices, and the habit of sleeping standing up.

WATTPAD BOOKS EDITION There are imperfect moments in every life-but sometimes, there are perfect accidents . . . What's the point of pretending nothing has changed when everything has? It's the last summer before college, and Jonas Avery knows he should be excited. Instead, he hides out at home, avoiding his friends, his family, and everything that resembles his old life. Because nothing will be normal again-because of The Accident, when everything started falling apart. Brennan Davis knows she needs to stand up and face her anxiety-the deep, dark, debilitating dread that rules her everyday life. Because what stops her from going out into the world and just living is going to get a whole lot worse. She's leaving for college in the fall, where she'll be confronted with even more to worry about. To get back up sometimes you have to fall down, hard . . . When Jonas crashes into Brennan-in a harmless, albeit embarrassing fender bender-the two teens connect in ways they never expected. As friends, they help each other overcome their biggest falls and faults, and soon discover that while love can't fix everything, it's sometimes a place to start. Sensitive, wry, and unabashedly authentic, The Opposite of Falling Apart isn't about finding perfection in another person or fixing the things we think are broken. Instead, Micah Good has penned an enchantingly honest novel about accepting the very pieces of ourselves that make us unique, whole, and undeniably human.
