Step into a breathtaking world where science fiction meets timeless adventure. Tony DiTerlizzi—the visionary artist behind The Spiderwick Chronicles—invites readers on an extraordinary journey with Eva Nine, a young girl who has spent her entire life underground, trained by a robot named Muthr in an isolated sanctuary.
But when her safe haven is destroyed, Eva must venture to the surface for the first time. What she discovers is not the Earth she learned about in her lessons. Instead, she finds a strange, beautiful planet filled with alien creatures, towering forests, and mysteries that challenge everything she thought she knew about her world and her place in it.
This isn’t just a story—it’s an immersive experience. DiTerlizzi’s stunning illustrations leap off the page, bringing this alien landscape to vivid life. Every chapter is a visual feast, making The Search for Wondla a perfect bridge for readers transitioning from picture books to middle-grade novels, or for anyone who believes that art and story should dance together.
At its heart, this is a tale about belonging, courage, and the search for home. Eva’s determination to find others like her—to discover where she truly belongs—will resonate with anyone who has ever felt like an outsider. It’s a story that reminds us that sometimes the most important journeys are the ones that help us find ourselves.
Perfect for fans of A Wrinkle in Time and The Wild Robot, this is science fiction that feels both fresh and familiar, like discovering a treasure you didn’t know you were searching for.
