New York Times bestselling author David Levithan takes young readers on twisting journey
through truth reality and fantasy and belief. Aidan disappeared for six days. Six agonizing
days of searches and police and questions and constant vigils. Then just as suddenly as he
vanished Aidan reappears. Where has he been? The story he tells is simply. . . impossible. But
it's the story Aidan is sticking to. His brother Lucas wants to believe him. But Lucas is
aware of what other people including their parents are saying: that Aidan is making it all up
to disguise the fact that he ran away. When the kids in school hear Aidan's story they taunt
him. But still Aidan clings to his story. And as he becomes more of an outcast Lucas becomes
more and more concerned. Being on Aidan's side would mean believing in the impossible. But how
can you believe in the impossible when everything and everybody is telling you not to?
