Ezra — Jim Black

Twelve-year-old Ezra Jerome Baker came from the stars. He's sure of it. He just has to convince his two best friends, Ollie Jansen and Maple McWhorter. Meanwhile, in 1965, in the tiny Texas town of Darling, the three youngsters tackle the world together -- unaware their summer is racing toward a shocking climax that will change their lives forever.

As they did in their debut novel, Life with Bingo, authors Black and Lewis tell their story from the perspective of two characters in this, their latest heartwarming tale of friendship and loyalty.
