Back to the Future meets The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time in this original, poignant, race-against-time story about a boy who travels back to 1984 to save his father’s life. My dad died twice. Once when he was thirty-nine and again four years later, when he was twelve. On his twelfth birthday, Al Chaudhury receives a letter from his dead father. It directs him to the bunker of their old house, where Al finds a time machine (an ancient computer and a tin bucket). The letter also outlines a mission: travel back to 1984 and prevent the go-kart accident that will eventually take his father’s life. But as Al soon discovers, whizzing back thirty years requires not only imagination and courage, but also lying to your mom, stealing a moped, and setting your school on fire—oh, and keeping your pet hamster safe. With a literary edge and tons of commerical appeal, this incredible debut has it all: heart, humor, vividly imagined characters, and a pitch-perfect voice.

At the pinnacle of an impressive career, Mynoo Maryel stepped away from her hamster-on-a-wheel life and leapt out into the great unknown — and landed, on both feet, in pure magic.

Slowly but surely she turned up the volume on her heart’s inner voice, and listened to its guidance. From that place, and from that point forward, she has been able to create and bring real fulfillment into her own life — and harmony into her relationships. We can all do this. Part autobiography and part hands-on guidebook, The BE Book is a refreshing blast of fresh air. Full of charm and humanness, it’s a wake-up call to parts of us that have long been asleep, an invitation to the grand adventure of life, and a treasure map to our own authentic joy. Absolute miracles are there for each of us to claim. All that’s required are some timely reminders, and something wonderful to light our way. The BE Book offers us those reminders, and that light.
