Hello, Universe by Erin Entrada Kelly Book Summary

Winner of the Newbery Medal

“A charming, intriguingly plotted novel.”—Washington Post

Newbery Medalist Erin Entrada Kelly’s Hello, Universe is a funny and poignant neighborhood story about unexpected friendships.

Told from four intertwining points of view—two boys and two girls—the novel celebrates bravery, being different, and finding your inner bayani (hero). “Readers will be instantly engrossed in this relatable neighborhood adventure and its eclectic cast of misfits.”—Booklist

In one day, four lives weave together in unexpected ways. Virgil Salinas is shy and kindhearted and feels out of place in his crazy-about-sports family. Valencia Somerset, who is deaf, is smart, brave, and secretly lonely, and she loves everything about nature. Kaori Tanaka is a self-proclaimed psychic, whose little sister, Gen, is always following her around. And Chet Bullens wishes the weird kids would just stop being so different so he can concentrate on basketball.

They aren’t friends, at least not until Chet pulls a prank that traps Virgil and his pet guinea pig at the bottom of a well. This disaster leads Kaori, Gen, and Valencia on an epic quest to find missing Virgil. Through luck, smarts, bravery, and a little help from the universe, a rescue is performed, a bully is put in his place, and friendship blooms.

The acclaimed and award-winning author of Blackbird Fly and The Land of Forgotten Girls writes with an authentic, humorous, and irresistible tween voice that will appeal to fans of Thanhha Lai and Rita Williams-Garcia.

“Readers across the board will flock to this book that has something for nearly everyone—humor, bullying, self-acceptance, cross-generational relationships, and a smartly fateful ending.”—School Library Journal

Hello, Universe. This book was a good book. Not my favorite, but one of the books I’ll probably read again. I really wish it was longer though. The word vocabulary wasn’t very complex and I didn’t get some of the book. I can tell this book is included some Spanish stories and legends. I personally think the author could do a bit better. I know this book took a hot minute to write, but Erin Entrada Kelly could’ve taken more time to write the book. Anyhow, the book was enjoyable and I won’t be surprised if I see young kids reading it. The story’s timeframe is quite short but it was alright. I hope this book doesn’t get a nasty review, because it was an intriguing and fun book. Thanks! - a fellow iBook reader

Loved it.. Read aloud to my 9 year old son. He was very interested the whole read through. Loved the “coming of age” themes of friendship, finding one’s voice, and celebrating diversity.
