Zachary Briddling is unbearably normal. His height is exactly the height of an average boy of an average age. His hair lies exactly the way of an average boy on an average day. And when he dreams at night, he dreams the most average dreams. Zachary wants to be different – someone who stands out and is special. He sets off on a magical adventure to find a place where he might feel special, and in doing so, he finally finds his own place in the world. This hilarious and imaginative adventure is for anyone who has ever struggled to discover and embrace all that makes them unique and special.
