Here in the Real World by Sara Pennypacker

 

Ware is looking forward to a perfect summer dreaming of knights in the middle ages living alone with his grandmother who everyone calls "Big Deal." But when his grandmother falls and breaks her hip, Ware's freedom is yanked away, and his mother has signed him up for another summer of normal kid activities at the neighborhood Rec Center. On his first day, he discovers an overgrown abandoned shell of a church where a girl named Jolene is attempting to start a garden and he can begin turning the remaining walls of the church into his castle. After several days, the two begin to work together to transform the space and begin to learn about each other's lives.
