A New Dimension

Zenda #2

by John Amodeo, Ken Petti, Cassandra Westwood

I didn’t mean for things to happen this way. But they did. Now while everyone else moves forward, my entire life is on hold! Even worse, the magical gift that holds the key to my future is in jeopardy. I want to make everything right. But what if I can’t?

So begins the adventure of twelve-year-old Zenda from Azureblue, a magical green planet where the quest for spiritual enlightenment is as natural to living as breathing. Smart, gifted, and headstrong, yet also a sensitive dreamer, Zenda is the quintessential girl on the verge of adolescence: always changing, always questioning, and constantly seeking to make sense of her world and her place in it. Featuring a thoroughly modern yet timeless character, Zenda is the ultimate series for today’s sophisticated ’tween girl.

Through some pretty hard knocks and more than a little luck, Zenda has recovered her first musing: Every flower blooms in its own time. Zenda’s elated. It’s going to be hard, but at least she knows it’s possible for her to find her thirteen musings. However, knowing this doesn’t keep Zenda from feeling that the world is against her when pressures at school and at home pull at her from all sides. So when something incredibly surreal happens and Zenda wakes up in an alternate dimension where everything is perfect, she has to wonder: Why should she go back?
