Description:

When Albie's mum dies, he naturally wants to know where she's gone. His scientist dad mentions something about quantum physics and parallel universes — so Albie decides to build his own machine out of a cardboard box, an old laptop, and a rotting banana, and sets off across dimensions to find her. Along the way, he meets surprising versions of himself and discovers big truths about life, loss, and the universe(s). Funny, clever, and deeply moving, this heartwarming adventure blends real science with a tender story about grief — proving that even books about physics can break your heart in the best way.
