Set against the backdrop of a summer filled with exploration and self-discovery, Clay finds solace in working with clay, allowing his artistic endeavors to serve as a medium for expressing his emotions and navigating the complexities of growing up. As he faces peer relationships and personal struggles, Clay learns valuable lessons about friendship, acceptance, and the importance of embracing one's unique identity. Through his journey, he discovers the transformative power of creativity. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
