I read this book in grade school and loved it! Highly recommended to any young person to start a hunger for reading. It's about a young person with unique abilities that overcomes obstacles with the aid of unusual friends. This would be a great book to bring back to print!
This is a great book!

He was plucked out of the orphanage because of his amazing memory and logic skills.Now he is an entertainer - his hair is dyed blue, he is known as the Blue Boy - and a multimillion dollar corporation is based on his popularity.One night his world falls apart as a young lady warns him he is in grave danger. He finds she is right. He remembers some things that now cause people to want him dead. And he has to use all his mental power to excape being killed.He joins forces with the young lady, an invisible voice named Marlowe, and a Puerto Rican native named Louis Black, all fugitives.This book is simply amazing. I highly recommend it!
