Shortly after Jack is born, strange things are afoot in the Bokimble
house--glasses fall from shelves, and nothing seems to be where Mr. and
Mrs. Bokimble left it. Jack's parents begin to sense that there's
something strange about their son, and it's not long before they realize
that he has a secret friend: his magical shadow.
Is Jack's shadow a superpower that he needs to control and master? Or is
it a curse that will separate him from others? Travel with Jack on his
boyhood journey as he learns not only how to control his magical shadow
but what it means to be different--a story that mines the potential for
magic and mystery in all of us.
