The Young and Prodigious T.S. Spivet (2013)

In the vast expanse of Montana's ranchland, the Young and Prodigious T.S. Spivet resides with his unconventional family. His mother, a woman consumed by the fascinating intricacies of beetles, his cowboy father, a man seemingly born out of time, and his 14-year-old sister, who dreams of the glitz and glamour of the Miss America crown. Only 10 years old, T.S. is a phenomenon himself, a child prodigy with a profound passion for cartography and scientific innovation. His life takes a dramatic turn when he receives an unanticipated call from the esteemed Smithsonian Museum. T.S. has been selected as the winner of the prestigious Baird Prize for his groundbreaking discovery of the perpetual motion machine. This honor comes with an invitation to a grand reception where he is to deliver a speech, a daunting prospect for a 10-year-old. Abandoning the familiarity of his ranch, T.S. embarks on an epic journey across the American landscape, clandestinely hitching a ride on a freight train to Washington D.C. His journey is shadowed by the silent, haunting memory of Layton, his twin brother. Layton's untimely death in a mysterious firearm accident in the family barn looms like a ghost, a tragedy that the family shrouds in silence. T.S., who was there during the accident, conducting an experiment on the scale of gunshots, is left grappling with the enigmatic circumstances of his brother's death. The Young and Prodigious T.S. Spivet is a compelling tale of a child's pursuit of recognition and understanding in a world that is often too large and confusing for even the most prodigious of minds.
