It's the middle of the Depression, and while Bobby's mother and older sister knit all day to make money, Bobby explores the California desert around their home. That's how Bobby finds Boots. He's under their one halfdead tree, half-dead himself. Right away he too is a secret—a secret to be fed and clothed and taken care of, and even more of a secret because of what he can do. Sometimes Boots is a man. Sometimes he's (really, truly) a horse. He and Bobby both know something about magic—and readers will, too, after reading the acclaimed Carol Emshwiller's first novel for Viking. 91299 21 7 2005 Mister Boots total:8|5:2|4:1|3:3|2:2|1:0| 8 27 13 0 2 0 false false Wed Sep 30 18:35:16 -0700 2009 Wed Sep 30 18:35:16 -0700 2009 2 0 false false Sun May 17 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat May 23 17:25:36 -0700 2009 Sat May 23 17:25:51 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Wed Apr 01 12:16:09 -0700 2009 Wed Apr 01 12:16:09 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Wed Feb 01 00:00:00 -0800 2006 Sat Feb 14 20:57:06 -0800 2009 Sat Feb 14 20:57:15 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Tue Jan 20 16:42:12 -0800 2009 Tue Jan 20 16:42:12 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Tue Dec 23 11:13:11 -0800 2008 Tue Dec 23 11:13:11 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Sun Aug 24 22:29:10 -0700 2008 Sun Aug 24 22:29:10 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Tue Aug 19 18:09:40 -0700 2008 Tue Aug 19 18:09:40 -0700 2008 3 0 false false Mon Jul 21 16:28:02 -0700 2008 Mon Jul 21 16:28:02 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Sat Jun 21 15:31:42 -0700 2008 Sat Jun 21 15:31:42 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Thu Jun 19 09:32:08 -0700 2008 Thu Jun 19 09:32:08 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Wed May 07 13:28:50 -0700 2008 Wed May 07 13:28:50 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Mon Sep 24 07:03:42 -0700 2007 Mon Sep 24 07:03:42 -0700 2007 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=1941500
