Publisher Description A heartfelt debut middle-grade told from the unique vantage points of a witty typewriter and an introverted boy-for fans of Wishtree and A Rovers Story.Being a typewriter is not as easy as it looks. Surrounded by books (notorious attention hogs) and recently replaced by a computer, Olivetti has been forgotten by the Brindle family-the family hes lived with for years. The Brindles are busy humans, apart from 12-year-old Ernest, who would rather be left alone with his collection of Oxford English Dictionaries. The least they could do was remember Olivetti once in a while, since he remembers every word theyve typed on him. Its a thankless job, keeping memories alive.Olivetti gets a rare glimpse of action from Ernests mom, Beatrice-his used-to-be most frequent visitor-only for her to drop him off at Heartland Pawn Shop and leave him helplessly behind. When Olivetti learns Beatrice has mysteriously gone missing afterward, he believes he can help find her. He breaks the only rule of the "typewriterly code" and types back to Ernest, divulging Beatrices memories stored inside him.Their search takes them across San Francisco-chasing clues, maybe committing a few misdemeanors. As Olivetti spills out the past, Ernest is forced to face what he and his family have been running from, The Everything That Happened. Only by working together will they find Beatrice, belonging, and the parts of themselves theyve lost. Author Biography Allie Millington first wrote Olivetti on her own antique typewriter, who turned out to have an awful lot to say. She lives with a collection of clacking machines, along with her husband Andrew, and their dog, Crumpet. For more about Allie, you can find her in her blanket fort or on instagram: @fictionallie.
