Born with a frozen heart, Jack is near death when his mother abandons him to the care of Dr. Madeleine—witch doctor, midwife, protector of orphans—who saves Jack by placing a cuckoo clock in his chest. And it is in her orphanage that Jack grows up among tear-filled flasks, eggs containing memories, and a man with a musical spine.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs Jack gets older, Dr. Madeleine warns him that his heart is too fragile for strong emotions: he must never, ever fall in love. And, of course, this is exactly what he does: on his tenth birthday and with head-over-heels abandon. The object of his ardor is Miss Acacia—a bespectacled young street performer with a soul-stirring voice. But now Jack’s life is doubly at risk—his heart is in danger and so is his safety after he injures the school bully in a fight for the affections of the beautiful singer.","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46301195272421,"sku":"NP9780307472137","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9780307472137.jpg?v=1767738516","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/the-boy-with-the-cuckoo-clock-heart-isbn-9780307472137","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
