from a bike accident, Harry
emerges on the Other Side,
a strange land where dead
people wander about, wait-
ing to move on to the Great
Blue Yonder. Harry's not
sure exactly what the Great Blue Yonder is,
but he doesn't want to go there until he's
found some way to let his sister know that
he's sorry for the mean things he said to her
just before the accident. To do that, he'll
have to return to Earth as a ghost--and face
what life there is like without him.
WonderR.J. Palacio
