The strange and diverting story of the loblolly boy

The loblolly boy - a magical, Peter Pan-like creature - has the gift of flight, is invisible to most people, and has the power to exchange identities with anyone willing to do so. When the loblolly boy swaps identities with the narrator of this story, we are taken on a fast-paced odyssey, and follow him through a chain of transformations and encounters with fantastic characters. At the heart of the story is a swirling logic problem. Suggested level: primary, intermediate.
