Synopsis

Oscar Martin was fourteen when he vanished from his Iowa farmhouse home. His sister said that Oscar rowed out to sea; but there are no oceans in Iowa - so how was that possible? Nearly a century later, Lucy Martin and her parents move to that same farmhouse, where her father mysteriously disappears. When she finds the mystical Book of Story Beginnings , Oscar reappears and together they venture into a fantasy world in search of Lucy's father - and a happy ending.

Author Bio
Kristin Kladstrup lives with her family in Massachusetts, USA. This is her first novel. Of her inspiration, she says, I have always loved the big, brick house in Iowa where my mother grew up. From its windows, I could imagine the ocean stretching out to the Iowa horizon. If I'd had the chance as a child, I might have written a story beginning about it, just as Oscar does.
