Imagine a world where everything routine becomes new and exciting and even the simplest details seem foreign to the characters and reader alike. As the book illustrates images like a movie in the reader’s mind, a series of events leads a young boy, James, to break away from this monotonous environment that was forced upon him. As James struggles to leave the long unchallenged walls of his hometown, Divot, he finds a world that even with his active imagination could never have been thought possible. As James strives to live outside his parents’ watchful gaze, the mundane seeps over the wall and into his new refuge. Then suddenly a shocking turn of events leads him back to Divot, where he learns the world is a lot smaller and tougher than he had ever known.
