First, there’s middle school, with its Girls’ Mouths and Boys’ Mouths. He mostly looks at the Boys’ Mouths.
Everyone calls him Sealed Mouth, and he gets spat on and insulted by all the other mouths (especially Big Mouth and Iron Mouth). When things get too hard, Sealed Mouth takes refuge in a virtual world. He acts as if he were in a video game: he checks his health bar, unlocks new worlds, and devises defense strategies. To escape, he also turns to his computer, phone, and TV. One day, he stumbles upon a video by Mauvais garçon, a singer with a one-of-a-kind mouth—neither a Girl’s Mouth nor a Boy’s Mouth. It’s beautiful, and it feels like a new suit of armor to him. And then there’s The New Kid and his smile.
Then comes high school. The mouths have grown and changed. Sealed Mouth’s has too. He meets Jess, who becomes his best friend. The New Kid is still there. Now he has long hair and is super stylish. Will Sealed Mouth manage to talk to him?
