A Shadow Jumper by J. M. Forster
Jack has a rare condition that makes sunlight dangerous, so he learns to move through the world by staying in the shadows. When his mom becomes ill, he teams up with a new friend to search for answers, leading them on an unexpected journey filled with mystery, discovery, and growing courage. Their quest helps Jack realize he is stronger than he ever imagined.
