London, around what year did you read this book?
Please note you must add genre (e.g., YA fantasy?) and plot details to the header/ topic title "I need help...". Just copy from what you've already written in the first comment. Requests with vague headers are closed because this group is so large.

I removed the ALL CAPS from the header. (It looks like shouting.)

I added some details to the header/ topic title. Feel free to edit it.
Who and where are his parents? What is the story's time period and location?
Is this a YA fantasy or mystery (for teens)?

Quotes from the book:
- But baseball was as magical to him as a green, mossy mountain covered in ancient trees.

- He turned on his light and stood back to examine the wall of cupboard doors. Ninety-nine doors of all shapes and sizes looked back at him. His eyes were first drawn to the center, where the door of the two compass knobs ruled the wall...
