About This Book
Reach for this book when your child feels like they do not fit in or when they are struggling to find where they belong in their social circle. This science fiction adventure follows Jacob Miller, a boy who feels like an outsider on Earth but suddenly finds himself on a parallel planet where everything he knows is backwards. While it features the classic R. L. Stine spooky thrills, the core of the story explores the subjective nature of being normal and the resilience required to survive in an environment that rejects you. It is a fast paced read for ages 8 to 12 that uses a high stakes sci-fi premise to normalize the common childhood fear of being different or misunderstood by peers.
