The Incredible Magic of Being
The Incredible Magic of Being | Kathryn Erskine
2 posts | 1 read | 1 reading | 2 to read
Some might say Julian is sheltered. But he lives large, and his eternal optimism allows him to see infinite possibilities wherever he looks. Despite his optimism, he is anxious about his stressed family falling apart. Even his ability to "uni-sense" what's happening with his sister is gone. If he can make his family focus on the magic in the universe, surely they'll appreciate life again. Now that they are moving from Washington, DC, to rural Maine, Julian can use his beloved telescope without any light pollution. He can discover a comet, name it for himself, and show his family how they're all truly connected.As Julian searches the night sky, he encounters a force that may drive his plan apart. His neighbor, Mr. X, could bring an end to his parents' dream of opening their B&B. Could one negative force unravel everything? An avid student of science, Julian understands that there is much about the universe that we don't yet know. Who is to say what's possible and what's not?

Jee_HookedOnBookz I have yet to read White Teeth 6y
Elma @Jee_HookedOnBookz I started it before I knew we were going to read it for book club and couldn't get into it. And I'm actually going to miss the book club, so I can't decide of it should finish it or not. I've heard some good things about it though. 6y
Jee_HookedOnBookz @Elma same here. I started reading a couple of pages but just couldn't get into it. So instead of spending more time on it I decided to put it aside..until..I dunno, the time is right? Lol😅 6y

Kat.Kao @Laura317 That is why I teach 6th and not 7th or 8th! Don‘t need cosmic phenomena in my life. 7y
