The Boy Who Fell From the Sky
by Benjamin Dean
A gripping, heartfelt sci-fi adventure for young readers that explores friendship, family loyalty, and learning to challenge what we're taught.
Zed, a twelve-year-old in a world where Demons fall from the sky every time a shooting star appears, dreams of following his father—the top Hunter—in ridding Earth of these mysterious creatures. But when Zed meets Spark, a terrified Demon boy who just wants to go home, everything Zed believes about right and wrong, good guys and bad guys, is shaken. As Zed races against time to help Spark and his brother, he must confront the Authority he’s grown up trusting and discover what it really means to stand up for what’s right.
Lavishly illustrated with black-and-white art throughout, Benjamin Dean’s latest middle-grade novel is packed with adventure, empathy, and memorable characters. It touches on important themes for young people: family pressure, prejudice, compassion, multiculturalism, and finding the courage to question the world around you.
Perfect for confident readers and for sharing as a class read, this is a page-turner that will spark conversation and encourage kindness in all who encounter it.
