Now an animated series streaming on Apple TV+! Celebrate the 10th anniversary of Tony DiTerlizzi’s New York Times bestselling, richly illustrated Search for WondLa series with this first installment of the modern classic space-age adventure.

Twelve-year-old Eva Nine has spent her entire life underground, raised by a caring robot named Muthr in a hidden sanctuary. But when a ruthless marauder destroys the only home she’s ever known, Eva is forced to flee to the surface, a strange and dazzling world she’s only read about in her old textbooks.

Clutching a tattered scrap of cardboard depicting a young girl, an adult, and a robot beside the mysterious word “WondLa,” Eva sets off on an extraordinary journey. Are there other humans out there? And if so, where does she truly belong?

What makes this book extra special: DiTerlizzi (co-creator of The Spiderwick Chronicles) layered the pages with breathtaking full-color illustrations and even augmented-reality features that bring the alien planet of Orbona vividly to life. It’s a feast for the eyes and the imagination.

Perfect for fans of A Wrinkle in Time and The Wild Robot, this is a story about courage, curiosity, and the unbreakable bonds we form along the way.

A wonderful pick to tuck into a beach bag, or to crack open on a foggy afternoon when the harbor mist rolls in over the cove. The kind of book young readers carry with them long after the last page.

Ages 8–12. Trade paperback.
