Surrounded by books (notorious attention hogs) and recently replaced by a computer, \u003cem\u003eOlivetti\u003c\/em\u003e has been forgotten by the Brindle family—the family he's lived with for years. The Brindles are busy humans, apart from 12-year-old Ernest, who would rather be left alone with his collection of Oxford English Dictionaries. The least they could do was remember \u003cem\u003eOlivetti\u003c\/em\u003e once in a while, since he remembers every word they've typed on him.

When \u003cem\u003eOlivetti\u003c\/em\u003e learns Beatrice has mysteriously gone missing afterward, he believes he can help find her. He breaks the only rule of the \"typewriterly code\" and types back to Ernest, divulging Beatrice's memories stored inside him.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTheir search takes them across San Francisco—chasing clues, maybe committing a few misdemeanors.

Only by working together will they find Beatrice, belonging, and the parts of themselves they've lost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Macmillan Publishers New Zealand Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47934161584364,"sku":"9781250326928","price":19.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781250326928-olivetti.jpg?v=1783901080"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.live\/collections\/allie-millington.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
