Sky Bounce

by Deanna Miller

Hesper the Alula and her secret friend Tristan the Boytaur are forced to part sadly when Hesper is sent to the human plane to save the parallel planes of existence from possible destruction. A year later, as Hesper leads the life of a high school girl with no memory of her previous life, she meets a strangely familiar boy. Tristan has journeyed at great risk to find her, having learned a way to travel between the planes without losing his memory. They return to the Alula plane on a dangerous adventure to discover the real solution to the planes’ troubles–as Hesper struggles all the while with her fear and her tender feelings for the friend who should be her foe.

Winner of the 2004 Wilbur Award for Fiction, given by the Religion Communicators Council. For ages 10 and up. An uplifting fantasy in the tradition of Madeleine L’Engle and C.S. Lewis. Field nominated by reviewers for ALA’s Best Books for Young Adults, Michael L. Printz Award for Excellence in Young Adult Literature, Popular Paperbacks for Young Adults, and Quick Picks for Reluctant Young Readers.

“Fresh and new and is very readable. Once started, a reader finds it difficult to stop.”
- Jean E. Karl, who nominated Sky Bounce for the Pushcart Press Editors’ Book Award

“Remarkable philosophical and spiritual depth even as the story is just plain fun! The value placed on each plane’s uniqueness and emphasis on fitting in makes for strong social commentary for the discerning reader. Miller’s embracing of individuality and self-sacrifice makes for deep thinking . . . Sky Bounce comes very highly recommended.”
- Cindy Penn, Wordweaving, 2003
