In Eden Cavalleri’s world, zoos don’t exist. The Anthros do: a twisted place where cybernetics come to gawk at humans imprisoned behind glass. The machines have taken over the world above ground, and they intend to exterminate or imprison what’s left of the human race. Eden’s job as a runner is simple: survive long enough to bring back much needed supplies to the other humans hiding in tunnels beneath the city. But after a botched supply run lands her under the glass domes as a zoo exhibit, her mission changes. Now, she has to learn to save herself instead of everyone else. A prisoner and lab rat, Eden is subjected to nightmarish and excruciating experiments at the hands of the machines. Their end goal is clear: turn her into one of them. Escaping seems impossible, unless she places her trust in the hands of her exhibit mate, a strange boy who was born within the zoo. If the machines succeed, though, Eden will be forced to hunt down other humans—even her own family.She’s used to running and hiding from her problems, but when the decision is made to face them head on, Eden learns that pride and confidence aren’t always good attributes to have. Trusting others may be her hamartia, and the price she pays for her freedom will be life-altering.

This is an all-inclusive book without an agenda that tries to answer the question “What are vaccines?” There is just so much misinformation and fear-mongering out there on both sides of the argument and it has caused such a huge divide in our country. When I saw the discrimination against unvaccinated children and families, I knew I needed to find a way to explain to these children that there is nothing wrong with them. I needed them to know that the fear or hatefulness of others is not a reflection of them at all. So, I looked for a children’s book that I could have on hand for when they were old enough to understand that may answer their questions. That book did not exist, so, I wrote it.In fact, I wrote an entire series of books called “Big Questions” that approaches more mature topics in a way that is appropriate and understandable to children. The target demographic is between 5 and 9 years old. This is but the first book of many and you can expect others to be released every 4-8 weeks for the foreseeable future. Please search for "Big Questions Books" to find more. I sincerely hope this series offers knowledge, healing, thoughtfulness, and inspires love and kindness among our younger generations.
