I’ve had to the good fortune to work with the authors, John Hulme and Michael Wexler, on this project, and I have a good feeling about this one.

I gave a galley copy of the book to my 9 year old son, who raves about it, so I think John and Michael may have a big hit on their hands.

Thanks and congrats, guys.

The Seems: The Glitch in Sleep (Hardcover) by John Hulme (Author), Michael Wexler (Author)

Twelve-year-old Becker Drane has definitely got the coolest job of any seventh grader in Highland Park, New Jersey. He works as a Fixer for The Seems. From the Department of Weather to the Department of Sleep, The Seems is a secret organization that makes sure our world keeps running – and more importantly, sticks to The Plan that’s been made for it. But The Plan, and The Seems for that matter, would be nothing without the people in it, and that’s where Becker Drane comes in. When a Glitch is reported in the Department of Sleep, Becker is dispatched to Fix it, but he’s not so sure this is a routine mission. Could the Bed Bugs, who are behind our Worst Nightmares, be responsible for the problems? Or maybe it’s The Tide, an underground organization bent on destroying The Seems? No matter what, Becker’s in for quite an adventure, and it’ll take all his training, a little luck, and the coolest Tools known in (or out of) the Seems to Fix the problem.
