Andersen Light

A Meta-Normal Novel

De: Tanya D. Dawson

Narrado por: Angie Hickman

In this coming-of-age novel, a bullying incident catapults a young girl into a fantastical new world…

Fourteen-and-a-half-year-old Georgie Rae Jones rockets beyond the tattered remnants of her self-confidence to save her siblings from an innuendo-charged family life and the stepdad she’s dubbed Jackass.

Now living in Mystic Creek, Oregon, with her dad, Georgie discovers her life as she once knew it will change forever. After her friend Shawn is pummeled by a dodgeball thrown by a bully, Georgie intervenes, only to send the bully flying across the schoolyard.

Reeling with shock and worry, but fueled by a wildfire of inner metamorphosis, she searches for answers, but it is family friend Luther Andersen—lighthouse keeper, mystic, and professor—who explains she is meta-normal.

This is the day Luther has been waiting for.

Meta-Normal Characters Come to Life!

In this young-adult novel, Dawson’s weaves a captivating coming-of-age story focused on the main character, Georgie, discovering and coming to terms with her meta-normal powers. Wildly entertaining, the story mixes real-life situations such as bullying and developing friendships with the complexity of dealing with emerging meta-normal powers. Life situations accelerate the “growing up” Georgie and her friends face, and they are fortunate to have the understanding and support of amazing adults and teachers. Bullying, kid-napping, espionage, meta-normal powers…you won’t want to stop listening until that last word is spoken!

An early reader of the print novel, I came to know the cast of characters in a whole new way through the voice of Hickman. I want to sit down for a meal with the whole crew!
