The Avalanche Kingdom: The Follow-Up to the Newbery Medal Winner the Eyes & the Impossible, (Hardcover)

<b>In the hugely anticipated follow-up to the Newbery Medal winner <i>The Eyes and the Impossible, </i>Dave Eggers and Caldecott honoree Shawn Harris reunite with the unforgettable Johannes and Bertrand and Helene for a wild and provocative new adventure.</b> <p>Johannes is half-dog and half-coyote, fully in love with speed and the beauty of the world. When <i>The Eyes &amp; the Impossible</i> 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. </p><p>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? </p><p>With Dave Eggers's breathtaking prose and Shawn Harris's singular artwork, <i>The Avalanche Kingdom</i> 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.</p>
