ONE PLUS ONE EQUALS BLUE

Fourteen year-old Basil knows he's special - he's been associating numbers with colors since he was a kid. His "gift" (or curse) has turned him into somewhat of a loner. But his world begins to change when he meets Tenzie, the new girl in school who, like him, has similar "freakisms." She, too, has synesthesia (a condition in which one type of stimulation evokes the sensation of another). At first, Basil is somewhat annoyed with Tenzie's pushiness, but after Basil's estranged mother returns, his life is turned upside down and Tenzie may be the only person to help him put it back together again.
