Teaser Tuesdays: "He's a very small boy."

There's another weekly event going around called Teaser Tuesdays. It's easy, so I'll give it a try. Here's the idea:

• Grab your current read.
• Let the book fall open to a random page.
• Share with us two (2) “teaser” sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.
• You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!
• Please avoid spoilers!

My book: The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay by Michael Chabon

My sentences from page 259:

"He is a very small boy, "Joe said. "For his age. He would not occupy very much space."

(Hmmm... I guess that's technically three sentences... but I'm leaving it.)
