Hi, I am launching my new middle-school children's picture book this coming week. Would you like to review an engaging story for kids 9-12? It's about an hour long read. Let me know and what sort of file you need.
Synopsis: A lake. A legend. A girl who sees what others can’t.
Andrea Johnson is used to seeing things nobody else notices—little flashes of wonder hiding in the everyday. But nothing prepares her for this: a real, live Ogopogo, gliding through the waters of Okanagan Lake.
At first, Andrea keeps her new scaly friend a secret. But when two troublemakers capture the shy creature, Andrea must act fast. With her brother Matt (finally on her side), a mysterious old man who knows more than he lets on, and a creaky wheelbarrow, Andrea sets out on a wild rescue mission to save Ogopogo before it’s too late.
Full of heart, humor, and just the right amount of weirdness, Ogopogo: A Weird Canadian Tale will leave readers cheering for the shyest lake monster in Canada—and for the brave girl who believes in him.
