About Beyond Hover: Dimensional Weaves

After escaping a shadow invasion that swept them from their parents’ arms and took them from their home in the Orfa Dimension, Ben fights his own tormenting shadows in his new home on Earth. Travels to the Myrra Dimension trap him in a retro-return that locks him in a replay of the same event over and over. Time wasted prevents Ben from finding his lost twin, Lacey, who's gone missing. Even worse, Daniel, a bully who teases Ben and his sisters, flirts with Chloe, the new girl in town, and Ben is jealous. Then Ben meets Frank (Benjamin Franklin), who helps search for Lacey with the children, teaches Ben how to get the girl, and learns how to hover--well, sort of. And in the middle of everything, Ben must contend with Fuzzbucket, an annoying ball of fluff that follows Ben everywhere, as well as Happy Shadow, who might know more than she's telling.
