About this ebook
Since turning twelve, Victory hardly recognizes his life anymore. In middle school, friends he's had since kindergarten have deserted him for new ones. He's too bored and jittery to sit still and concentrate, but when he tries to outrun his restlessness, his body feels sluggish and clumsy. His brain's all haywire, too, stubbornly doubting every truth he's learned to trust. His busy family ignores him more than ever, and he yearns to understand his true purpose in the universe. He thinks maybe he'd like to help people. Could he even be somebody's hero? But whose? And how? He wishes he could travel out beyond the stars to The Blue Somewhere, a friendly, less confusing place where he's sure to find adventure and answers to all his questions. Then one day at school, a kid knocks Victory flat on the concrete walkway. After struggling to his feet, he finds himself alone with strangers in an odd new world. Now, light years away from Earth's sensible physical laws and age-old beliefs, Victory must grapple with challenges more wrenching than any he's ever imagined.
Catherine Becker Reynolds
Catherine grew up with a fondness for fun and adventure, but reading has always been a major favorite, too. As a little girl, she enjoyed crawling under her father's Lionel train table to explore a big box of her sisters' old school readers, so Dick and Jane were already her friends when she started school. Born in Dayton, Ohio, Catherine loved stories about inventors, adventurous people, and faraway places. Inspired by her father's fascination for airplanes, she earned a private pilot's license as an adult. Catherine has always been intrigued by the ways that children grow and develop the character traits which they display as adults, and how they confront and learn from problems they encounter along the way. She has taught children from preschool through high school in her long professional career in education, and she enjoys writing for both children and adults.
