Sinossi

Juniper Greene lives in a walled city from which nature has been banished, following the outbreak of a deadly man-made disease many years earlier. While most people seem content to live in such a cage, she and her little brother Bear have always known about their resistance to the disease, and dream of escaping into the wild. To the one place humans have survived outside of cities. To where their mother is.
When scientists discover that the siblings provide the key to fighting the disease, the pair must flee for their lives. As they cross the barren Buffer Zone and journey into the unknown, Juniper and Bear can only guess at the dangers that lie ahead. Nature can be cruel as well as kind... Will they ever find the home they've been searching for?
A thrilling and thought-provoking ecological adventure from a fresh new voice in children's fiction. Perfect for fans of THE EXPLORER, THE LAST WILD and THE ISLAND AT THE END OF EVERYTHING.

    What real parents are saying … 
    “My high-energy toddler twins are asleep in 15 minutes. Bedtime used to take nearly 2 hours—but with Rocket’s calming narration and the beautiful stories from the Yawnimals box set, our nights have totally transformed. They YAWN on cue when Rocket YAWNS, and they’re asleep before the story ends.”  
    - Heather Schalk, Toddler Toolkit Podcast, Mother of 2 toddlers 
    “Their favorites are Amanda the Panda (they love the journey), Benny the Bear (truly magical for relaxation), and Lincoln the Lizard (hello, Monster Trucks!).” 
    “The stories are soothing, my toddlers love the illustrations, and this is now our must-have bedtime ritual. I can’t recommend this enough—it’s a total lifesaver for tired parents.”

Stitched Together is a delightful tale of tradition, friendship, and the joy of making something meaningful together. ​ This book celebrates the 500th anniversary of Anabaptism. A church’s anniversary quilting project allows readers to discover Anabaptists from around the world today. With illustrations by award-winning artist Kate Cosgrove and text by beloved children’s author Aimee Reid, this picture book invites intergenerational reading—with older members of congregations and families sharing their memories with those who are younger. And it makes space for the voices of those who will become the new leaders of the Anabaptist tradition. Suggested reading for ages 5–9.
