Description
Bobby Burns knows heโs 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 Bobbyโs life from all sides. Bobbyโs 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.
