Beyond the Laughing Sky

On the surface, this is a story about a boy who is born different. He is half bird, half human, and during the trying years of middle school he struggles to find his place in the world. The author's use of figurative language is astounding, and I wanted to savor every word. Children and adults will find this book delightful, and I highly recommend this book to any adolescent struggling to accept who they were born to be.

"A boy who is half human and half bird is certainly intriguing. Been thinking a lot about Felicity Pickle as I read this book. Something about Nashville's hometown reminds me of Midnight Gulch. Some deep underlying themes about self acceptance are surfacing."
