There are 21 maps with names such as secrets, knowledge, home, health, passion and chaos. The book was initially published in Dutch in 1999.

S. Spivet" I'm not sure I can even randomly select a work that links to it. Unique and ambitious, Reif Larsen's debut isn't a classic, but its nicely done. Tecumseh (family name adopted four generations earlier by his Finnish immigrant ancestor) Sparrow (named for the sparrow that crashed into the window of his birthing room) is a 12-year-old boy born on a Montana ranch to his gruff cowboy father and scientist mother in search of a phantom beetle.

S. is a normal boy--except he always calls his mother Dr. Clair, he hardly ever talks to his father (well, strike that, that could be considered normal 12-year-old-boy-behavior)-and he is an accomplished and published technical artist and cartographer. When he receives a call from the...
