On one level, my book
Polly! is a simple boy-meets-girl story--except the girl is a lot more than she appears to be (aren't they all?) and the boy gets a lot more than he bargained for.
But on another level it's a fantasy journey of discovery. What will you discover? Well, among other things: why snowmen can't dance; the Three Laws of Thermodynamics; a previously unknown Marx Brothers movie; and the secret of the universe. Oh, and the recipe for the perfect peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
Here's a blurb I'm very proud to have received:
All hands on Decalogue! A protagonist readers will find it easy to identify and empathize with, a classic journey story told with wit, wisdom and deceptive ease, and the most interesting guest star ever--what's not to like, here? Perhaps writers who attempt a book like
Polly! wanna crack or two across the face for their audacity (to parrot conventional wisdom)--but not if they can manage to pull it off this entertainingly.

Variable Star by Robert A. Heinlein and Spider Robinson
I hope you'll find it enjoyable. Keep reading,
