Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

[edit] Plot Foo--the place between the possible and the impossible--is a realm inside the minds of each of us that allows mankind the power to hope and imagine and dream. The powerfully gifted Leven Thumps, once an ordinary fourteen-year-old boy from Oklahoma, has been retrieved from Reality and sent to stop those in Foo who are nurturing dark dreams and plan to invade and rule Reality. In book four, the war to unite Foo and Reality has begun and is in full motion. Not only must Leven race across Foo to stop the war. With him now being The Want, Geth, Winter, and he must fight to save Foo before all is lost. There is no place like Foo.

Nowhere are the shores more beautiful or the skies so deep and moving. Unfortunately, the beauty is unraveling quickly. A great darkness is ascending from beneath the dirt as the true evil of Foo is unlocked and the Dearth rises above the soil. Assisted by Azure and an army of rants and other beings determined to merge Foo and Reality, the Dearth had brought war to the very borders of Sycophant Run. Normally the sycophants would have the situation well in hand, but with the secret of their mortality finally leaked, Clover and his breed are vulnerable as never before.

Leven, Winter, Geth, and Clover travel towards the gateway through Sycophant Run. But fate has other plans for Leven. He and Clover pool-travel to Alder and are set out to get through unfinished business to get to the oldest tree in foo. Will he make it in time?

[edit] Characters

[edit] Leven Thumps Leven is fourteen and is the grandson of Hector Thumps, the builder of the gateway. Lev originally knows nothing of Foo or of his heritage. He eventually discovers he is an offing who can see and manipulate the future. He is most experienced with manipulating the weather (control the wind, make it rain). Lev's brown eyes burn gold whenever his gift kicks in. Leven is also an unnatural offing in the way that he can manipulate the future over great distances. He also knows the secret of how to kill a sycophant. He has now become The Want as his grandfather was the last Want.He is also deeply in love with Winter Frore.

[edit] Winter Frore Winter is thirteen, with white-blond hair and deep evergreen eyes. Her pale skin and willowy clothes give her the appearance of a shy spirit. Like Sabine, she is a nit and has the ability to freeze whatever she wishes. She was swept away to Foo, but her thoughts and memories of her previous life are gone. Winter struggles just to figure out what her purpose is. In book two, her gift is forcefully taken away from her by a machine that she created in her past life. She is also deeply in love with Leven Thumps.

[edit] Geth The heir to the throne of the land of Foo, and one of the Lithens, the people who were chosen by fate to be on Foo first. He was turned into a Fantrum seed by Sabine, and grew until Terry Graph (Leven's Uncle) chopped him down for destroying his house. Geth then became a toothpick who helped Leven on his quest to stop the war of merging Reality and Foo. In Leven Thumps and the Whispered Secret Geth was returned to his old self in the turrets, and The City of Geth was restored. He has now joined Leven in hopes to save Foo. His brother was Zale, but evidence shows that Zale died.

[edit] Clover Ernest He is a wise-cracking sycophant from Foo, sent by the nit Antsel to look after Leven, who becomes his burn. He constantly tries to find a nickname for Leven (many of which include Chief and Big Man), as Winter calls Leven Lev. Clover has the power to turn invisible with his cloak(which also carries his secret void), and as a sycophant there is only one way that he can die, but only the sycophants and Lev know what that is.

[edit] Tim Tuttle Tim Tuttle was at one point Winter's neighbor. He has cared for her over the years. Once she goes missing, he searches for her. He has now entered Foo and is again looking for Winter. He acquires a blond sycophant named Swig, and his ability is yet to be found.

[edit] Dennis A boring, plain man, with a boring, plain life. Yet he runs into Geth's evil half, Ezra. And now he and Ezra fight to find the second way into Foo.

[edit] Ezra Tatum Company cut Geth's soul in half, and so his angry evil side was transferred into another toothpick. Ezra seduced Dennis into working for him, but Ezra is using him. He lives to kill Geth. Ezra is a long, fancy toothpick used to hold sandwiches together. He has a purple frill on his head and only one eye. He and Dennis both are moving across our world in hope to find a way back into Foo, He disappears into Geth's old stump out of sorrow for losing Dennis in Ruins of Alder. Geth then regains the lost part of his being.

[edit] Azure A lithen that betrayed Foo due to the Dearth's strong power. Taking over the part of Sabine, he leads the army of rants and other beings set on combining Reality with Foo. He still has some doubt for this cause contained in his right ear, which is constantly bleeding and which he scratches at when he is mad and/or irritated.

[edit] Awards Leven Thumps and the Gateway to Foo, the first book in the Leven Thumps series, won the Benjamin Franklin award from the Independent Book Publishers Association in 2006.[1]

Proposed deletion of Nadia Nascimento

edit
 

The article Nadia Nascimento has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No evidence for notability as an actor or business woman. She is not the woman by the same name who was killed by a plow (for which there was coverage)

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. StarM 16:24, 10 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
