“Nicholas Brown was eight years old. He had hair the color of bonfire flames and freckles as big as raindrops. The gap where his two front teeth should have been a gap for so long that this friends could not imagine his face any other way.”
A necklace of raindrops that keeps its owner dry in the heaviest rainstorm; a tiger that runs faster than the wind; a huge floating apple pie with a piece of sky in it.
