Summary
The boy who runs Squeeky Kleen’s Laundry Lube is deeply disturbed by his cat’s untimely, unusual demise – so disturbed, that he believes he’s rapidly disappearing! He needs someone to validate his existence and reverse the process. Then, the girl appears, a New Yorker with an attitude, who only wants to wash her stained dress, get to her graduation ceremony, and get on with the rest of her life. But a catastrophe in the laundromat causes her to miss the ceremony, and the gap between their very different worlds is bridged in the boy’s wondrous garden.
