The Selected Works of T.S. Spivet by Reif Larsen

The Story of Edgar Sawtelle by David Wroblewski and The Selected Works of T.S. Spivet by Reif Larsen are both coming-of-age stories which feature unusual adolescent boys who embark on dangerous journeys. Edgar, a mute with a strong affinity for the dogs his family breeds, runs away from a violent uncle to save his dogs. T.S. Spivet hops on a freight train for Washington, D.C. to receive a cartography award at the Smithsonian. His mapping skills are so sophisticated the museum officials have no idea their honoree is a 12 year old.
