Twelve year old, Andrew Brancusi doesn't know why he's different. By all accounts, he is just like every other kid being raised in the Italian community of Federal Hill, Rhode Island. Sure, while the other children were going home to their parents, Andrew was schlepping groceries for his grandparents up three flights of stairs but he attended church every Sunday, never missed a game of baseball down at the local sandlot, and even has a crush on the cheerleader next door. Still, Andrew finds himself consistently on the outskirts of society and celebrates his thirteenth birthday with his only two friends; Louis, the school nerd, and Cooper, his rescued dog. But when Andrew's birthday is marred by tragedy and Cooper is fatally injured, Andrew finds himself unlike any other kid on the Hill when he is able to miraculously heal his dog's injuries. Andrew's new-found gift may explain why Andrew has felt different all his life, but it also raises twice as many questions and some unexpected reactions from those around him; both good, and bad.
