Snopsis:
Barnaby Brocket is an
ordinary 8-year-old boy in most ways, but he was born different in one
important way: he floats. Unlike everyone else, Barnaby does not obey the law
of gravity. His parents, who have a horror of being noticed, want desperately
for Barnaby to be normal, but he can't help who he is. And when the unthinkable
happens, Barnaby finds himself on a journey that takes him all over the world.
From Brazil to New York, Canada to Ireland, and even to space, the floating boy
meets all sorts of different people--and discovers who he really is along the
way. This whimsical novel will delight middle graders, and make readers of all
ages question the meaning of normal.
