The first to win both the Carnegie and Newbery medals, best-selling author Sharon Creech tells the story of a 12-year-old daydreamer who replays his life as an intrepid young hero. Surrounded by his siblings, Leonardo scarcely makes a ripple in his large, boisterous family until he lands a part in his school play and finds a mysterious trunk in his attic. Soon fantasy and reality converge. But how do the secrets of that attic trunk change Leo's view of his father and himself?
