In the hugely anticipated follow-up to the Newbery Medal winner The Eyes and the Impossible, Dave Eggers and Caldecott honoree Shawn Harris reunite with the unforgettable Johannes and Bertrand and Helene for a wild and provocative new adventure.
Johannes is half-dog and half-coyote, fully in love with speed and the beauty of the world. When The Eyes & the Impossible ended, Johannes and his friends, a seagull named Bertrand and a goat named Helene, left behind an urban park by the sea to board a freighter, destination unknown. When that ship runs aground, the friends must for the first time confront the harsh calculus of the wild. Their new environment is full of predators-all of whom are interested in making a meal of the new arrivals.
But they are not alone. The prey of the region have banded together to present a unified front. And they have a powerful new weapon at their disposal-fire-that changes the natural order. But is the natural order the right order? Can it be upended by the most vulnerable?
With Dave Eggers's breathtaking prose and Shawn Harris's singular artwork, The Avalanche Kingdom asks tantalizing questions of nature and existence, while being, like its predecessor, a very funny, wildly lyrical, and beautifully written instant classic of literature for all ages.
