When twelve-year-olds Willa and Manny hear of a mysterious animal prowling their town, they are determined to prove it is…
real. Following the creature into a cave one full moon, they are swept into an alternate, ideal, world – one where pollution and conflict have been conquered decades ago and even their own families seem happier. But when they return, no one believes them. So, with a global war looming in their own world, their quest for proof of the Sideways World becomes ever-more urgent, in a nail-biting race against time. And Willa and Manny will have to make an impossible decision: because once you find a perfect world, can you ever leave it behind . . .?
A lyrical ode to summer evenings spent playing outside as a neighborhood glimmers with giggles and games. Summer evenings are…
a magical-the perfect time to roam and play outside. The setting sun provides the backdrop for games like leapfrog or hide-and-seek. Moments are spent swapping secrets or catching fireflies. Enjoy as neighborhood kids claim the dusk as their own.
