Summary
Winner of American Library Association Schneider Family Book Award!

What They're Saying
Critics Review
“A readable, thought-provoking tour de force, alive with stimulating ideas, hard choices, and young people discovering bright possibilities ahead. ”-Kirkus Reviews“Written in a more serious tone than Clements’s popular Frindle (Simon & Schuster, 1996), this novel will prove thought-provoking as it asks the reader to consider all the “things not seen.”–VOYA“Clements’s story is full of life; it’s poignant, funny, scary, and seemingly all too possible. The author successfully blends reality with fantasy in a tale that keeps his audience in suspense until the very end.”–School Library Journal
