Description
Thirteen-year-old Jamie O'Neill loves the color red. And he loves tall trees, rain with wind, books with covers, cats, rivers, and Edgar Allan Poe. Above all, he wishes for two things: to create a perpetual motion machine and to communicate with his mother, who died shortly after his birth. In Jamie's mind, these things are closely linked. And at his new school, where everything confuses and overwhelms him, he finds two people who might help him with this wish. The impressive novel How to Build a Ship tells the story of how one boy and his mission transform the lives of teachers Tess and Tadhg. A tender yet powerful tale about love, family, and human connections, about the power of imagination, and about the fact that the greatest adventures are never experienced alone.
