Sinossi
Per Genie è l'estate delle scoperte. Scopre che si può sopravvivere lontano da New York (in campagna e senza wi-fi!). Scopre che suo nonno fa un mucchio di stranezze: non esce mai di casa, porta gli occhiali da sole tutto il giorno, e ha una stanza segreta dove nessuno può entrare. Ma perché? Scopre che gli uomini della sua famiglia, raggiunti i quattordici anni, devono superare una misteriosa prova. E suo fratello Ernie sta per compierli. Quello che Genie ancora deve scoprire è cosa significa "paura" e quanto sia coraggioso ammettere di averne. Età di lettura: da 10 anni.
