365 Days of Books of Interest: Day #152: Zoe in Wonderland

How could that cover not catch my eye? I love all the nature shown from the trees to the birds to the flowers. It looks like the perfect reading spot.

Aside from the cover, I think the description seems very cute and delightful with Zoe using her imagination to make her life more exciting. What kid hasn't done that? I'm very interested in reading this.



Book: Zoe in Wonderland by Brenda Woods

Publication: August 16, 2016

Description:

Coretta Scott King Honor winner Brenda Woods introduces introverted, daydream-prone Zoe, who’s afraid her real life will never be as exciting as her imaginary one.

Zoe Reindeer considers herself “just Zoe”—never measuring up to her too-perfect older sister or her smarty-pants little brother. Truthfully, though, she’d rather just blend in with the plants at the family business, Doc Reindeer’s Exotic Plant Wonderland. She does have one friend, Q, and he’s the best one ever—but he’s moving away, leaving Zoe to fend for herself, and she doesn’t know what she’ll do without him. That is until a tall astronomer from Madagascar comes to the nursery looking for a Baobab tree. His visit starts a ball rolling that makes Zoe long for real adventures, not just imaginary ones—and shows her that perhaps her first real adventure is finally beginning.
