What do we remember of childhood? The dreams we used to dream once upon a time? The way time seemed to last forever, the way something always broke the dream, the way we had to return to earth? Maybe that's what this book's about. Maybe it's about Orlog the Dragon. Or Shadowbounder. Or Thomas McGuire. Or Margaret. Maybe it's about Kurt Hennish and his mother Eloise. Maybe it's about the Kingsley family. Maybe it's about a little girl named Rita and her teddy bear Herbert. Maybe it's about Highgate Street and the last summer before 4th grade.
