Young Adult
Bobby Burns knows he’s a lucky lad. Growing up in sleepy
Keely Bay, Bobby is exposed to all manner of wondrous
things: stars reflecting off the icy sea, a friend that
can heal injured fawns with her dreams, a man who can eat
fire. But darkness seems to be approaching Bobby’s life
from all sides. Bobby’s new school is a cold, cruel place.
His father is suffering from a mysterious illness that
threatens to tear his family apart. And the USA and USSR
are testing nuclear missiles and creeping closer and
closer to a world-engulfing war.
Together with his
wonder-working friend, Ailsa Spink, and the fire-eating
illusionist McNulty, Bobby will learn to believe in
miracles that will save the people and place he
loves.
