I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for my review.I liked this book. Initially I thought it was going to be a Harry Potter copy cat, but I was wrong.The main character, Gabe, is a 13 year old boy prone to what he and doctors describe as epileptic "auras". There is an enchanted old oak grove near Gabe's new home. With the fear of moving, going to a new school, the thought of what kids will think of his affliction, Gabe befriends a girl named Ellie who knows the history of the groves. She seems very in tune to the mysteries of the old oak grove and its call to Gabe.And the mystery begins!  Naturally there is the older brother, the school bullies, the beautiful girl heart throb, and all the other normal kid "stuff".Gabe has a unique talent. He tells stories through his gift of drawing. When he starts to have out-of-body experiences that he can see in his sketchbook, things start to get very interesting!This book was a delight to read. The only thing I did not like about this book, is that I have to wait until 2013 to read the second book.
