Travis Coates has a good head...on someone else's shoulders. A touching, hilarious "tour de force of imagination and empathy” (Booklist, starred review) from John Corey Whaley, author of the Printz and Morris Award-winning Where Things Come Back.

Dass sie dies tatsächlich erfolgreich geschafft haben, ist schon unglaublich genug. Aber dass es nur 5 Jahre nach seinem eigentlichen Tod geschieht,...
