The Search for WondLa - Kepler's Staff Review

Do you like stories with brave girl characters? This one is captivating. Eva Nine, a 12-year-old girl, wants to explore. But she has never been to the surface and it's dangerous up there. She does not have parents, and she has never met another human being. She lives in an underground Sanctuary with Muthr, a robot who trains her for survival and cares for her like a mother. When an intruder threatens their lives, Eva escapes to the surface... alone.

Now, Eva only has her Omnipod to help her--a device that navigates and identifies objects and life forms. On the surface, there are scary creatures, rocks move and change colors, and trees roam like centipedes across the ground. But Eva is a survivor, and luckily she makes alien friends who she communicates with through telepathic impressions. But what about Muthr, or other humans? And what is WondLa? Each page has action and suspense. I just know you will love this book--I could barely put it down.
