No matter how much he practices, shy, short-for-his-age, 11-year-old brainiac Sebastian is unable to become a chess champion. A kindly neighbor presents him with the Mighty Token to help him win. Unconvinced at first, Sebastian then discovers inner confidence to defeat his rival. However, the Token is not his to keep. Sebastian must give it to someone who faces impossible obstacles that prevent them from achieving their dreams. Thus begins Sebastian’s wild adventure, leading him from his Manhattan private school to the Museum of Natural History, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Central Park’s wooded Ramble, and finally to his own front door, where Sebastian faces his most important challenge: reuniting his split-up family.
“In Jonathan Day’s Sebastian and the Mighty Token, two hip kids, Sebastian, 11, and his sister, Lilly, 15, take middle-grade readers on a very modern adventure in a very contemporary New York City. Yet, this is just as much about old-fashioned family values and love coupled with just a little bit of magic. A perfectly charming read."
— Pamela Thomas, children’s book editor and author of Fatherless Daughters
