Publisher's Summary

Beyond the Blue is a coming of age novella. 12-year-old Anthony Breckenheimer is a clever boy with blue eyes, red hair, and, like his father, he is a little on the chubby side. He lives in the big City of Toronto with his mother, his little brother Ronald and his little sister Leona. His father died a year ago and Anthony misses him greatly especially when he is confronted by bullies on his way to and from school; the biggest and baddest one being Jerry Hasselbergen. One day while in his classroom Anthony discovers a magical window. What he sees through this window and beyond the blue changes his life forever. This magical story takes place in Toronto, Canada, in the 1950's just at the time that televisions are on the scene for many families. Anthony's father has died. His mother in adjusting to being a single mother must go out to work. Anthony and his 2 younger siblings go to school. Anthony is bullied by 3 boys on his way to and from school.
