protect the diamonds<br /> survive the clubs<br /> dig deep through the spades<br /> feel the hearts<br /> <br /> Ed Kennedy is an underage cabdriver without much of a future. He's pathetic at playing cards, hopelessly in love with his best friend, Audrey, and utterly devoted to his coffee-drinking dog, the Doorman. His life is one of peaceful routine and incompetence until he inadvertently stops a bank robbery.<br /> <br /> That's when the first ace arrives in the mail.<br /> <br /> That's when Ed becomes the messenger.<br /> <br /> Chosen to care, he makes his way through town helping and hurting (when necessary) until only one question remains: Who's behind Ed's mission?<br /> A 2005 Michael L. Printz Honor Book and recipient of five starred reviews, <i>I Am the Messenger</i> is a cryptic journey filled with laughter, fists, and love.
