That, contrary to the theory of a renowned mathematician, the number pi and the story it told would never end. That his brother who had been killed in the war, was still alive, and that a great bear would lead us to him. And that I was a person he wanted to be friends with."

Early - who lives in the custodian's room at school, helps Jack adjust to his new surroundings and takes him on an epic journey that mirrors the story of pi.

"There are no coincidences. Just miracles by the boatload."
"If you don't lie it, take it apart and make it right."
