in very good used condition

Two years ago, while on a camping trip with his family, twelve-year-old Joey disappeared. Now he has returned. He can't remember what happened to him, he has a persistent runny nose, and, most unsettling of all, he has not aged. Though Joey tries to ease back into his life, he finds he's become a celebrity in his town--the boy who was kidnapped. His best friend, now two years older, has a new group of friends, and Joey has a new baby sister. Then Joey begins having seizures and, along with them, strange bits of visions. Suddenly, finding out what happened to him becomes the most important thing in Joey's life. His quest leads him to two college students who believe he was abducted by aliens. As strange as this seems, Joey comes to believe it is the most likely answer. Finally, he risks his life to find the truth. Butts has written a page turner with some well-developed characters whose decisions cause them to change and grow. We cheer for Joey when he is determined to return to school, and we ache with him when he finds that his friends no longer want to be seen with him. We feel the desperation that drives him to track down a college student slightly reminiscent of a young Fox Mulder.

THANK  YOU  FOR  LOOKING  &  GOOD LUCK  IF  YOU  BID!

NB:  As the majority of my items are second hand, vintage or antique, they will probably have been used.  Most items will get surface marks and signs of wear during their years of use. 

Also, please be aware that during the time period when most of the items I sell were manufactured, there was no such thing as quality control, and the manufacturing process was not as it is today, so there may be a spot or two from when the set was fired in the kiln, black specks under the glaze, pin pricks where a glaze bubble popped, and support marks on the bottoms of the pieces etc. (This is mainly for Porcelain, China, Ceramic, Pottery & Glass items)
