With help from his volatile classmate Johnny, Boo sets out to track down the mysterious Gunboy who cut short both their lives.In a heart-rending story written to his beloved parents, the odd but endearing Boo relates his astonishing heavenly adventures as he tests the limits of friendship, learns about forgiveness and, finally, makes peace with the boy he once was and the boy he can now be.
