a bit daunting in length but completely worth the time spent reading it,  this novel has the distinct apperance of a school text book including diagrams and side notes.

t.s. spivet is a 12 year old cartographer on a mission to accept an award at the smithsonian and prove that he, a pre-teen, did indeed draw all of the marvelous scientific illustrations which he is being awarded for.

congratulations to you reif larsen for this fantastic first novel.

keep on keeping on.
