And whenever she dives to the bottom the pool, she gets a powerful sense that she is not alone in the water. If Tess is to stand any chance of surviving her ordeal, she will need to have the courage and tenacity worthy of her nickname.Wonderbear is a sharp-witted thriller with a supernatural twist that is bound to satisfy young adult and adult readers alike.

He pulls monkey after monkey from the hat, blows bubbles in amazing shapes, and transforms flowers into spectacular floating sea creatures. The two kids are wide-eyed with wonder, and you will be too. This is a dazzling debut?a vibrant, welcoming, strikingly original picture book.
