Explanation Concering Books Edward's Eyes

Jake is a part of an extraordinary family. He has a life filled with art, music, and long summer nights on the Cape. He has hours and days and months of baseball. But, more than anything in this world, Jake knows he has Edward. From the moment he was born, Jake knew Edward was destined for something. Edward could make anyone laugh and everyone think. During one special year, he became the only one in the neighborhood who could throw a perfect knuckleball. It was a pitch you could not hit. That same year, Jake learned there are also some things you cannot hold.

Patricia MacLachlan, one of the most beloved children's book authors writing today, has painted a deeply stirring, delicately lyrical portrait of a child, a son, a family, and a brother. Through Edward's eyes, we see what gifts all of these things truly are to those around them, and how those gifts live on and grow.

From the moment he was born, Jake knew Edward was destined for something. Edward could make anyone laugh and everyone think. And Edward's eyes. They were so beautiful, you could spend hours staring at them. During one special year, he became the only one in the neighborhood who could throw a perfect

this is a story about a boy named Edward. He plays baseball and is one of the best in his town. But, then everything went downhill. One thing i liked about Edward is that he isnt conceeded like most people that are really good at something. Something that bothered me is that, i was really confused about which character was who. This is a really sweet story. Until Edward had to be rushed to the hospital. They took Edwards eyes. People who like to read realistic fiction books about sports would

My poor heart. 😭

MacLachlan's language is always beautiful -- such dexterity and skills! Like someone else wondered on Goodreads, I, too, wonder whom this book is for. When Marylou Harris and James Taylor are mentioned without any explanation (making them sound like they are characters "in the kitchen" with Maeves,) you know that some nostalgia is behind these scenes. The story is set near now since there is the easy and powerful internet for the 90 year-old Trick, but the household feels very quaint. (I did
