- Winner of Italy&’s 2006 Premio Andersen Award: A young writer&’s fantasy world becomes dangerously entangled with realityEleven-year-old Archie and his six-year-old brother, Oggie, are constantly going back and forth between their mother&’s home and the apartment that their father shares with his girlfriend. To distract Oggie from the turbulence of endlessly bouncing from &“Saturn&” to &“Jupiter&” and back again, Archie invents a fantastic story about the Mysterious Mole People. When Oggie&’s wallet is stolen by kids from a local gang, Archie tries to retrieve it and becomes increasingly ensnared in the gang&’s dangerous activities. Even worse, he soon finds that his fictitious mole story is merging with the darkness of real life in a very frightening way.
