LIBRARY Curious about Audio Books at St. Albans City School, then check out THIS LINK RED CLOVER AND GOLDEN DOME BOOK AWARD NOMINEES Orphaned Willodeen feels more comfortable with nature than with the villagers of Perchance, and this gives her a unique perspective as to how and why the local environment is disastrously changing. The villagers have killed all the warthog-like screechers; there are increasing droughts and deadly wildfires; and now even the annual migration of the beloved hummingbears is threatened. Willodeen believes that all these events are related and sets out with her new friend, Connor, to solve the environmental mystery and restore the balance of nature. Obie, a competitive swimmer, has always relied on the support of his swim coach - but-when his coach decides that transgender swimmers have no place on the team, Obie has to find the courage to join a new team, get back in the pool, and face the former friends and mentors who are determined to shame him for simply being himself.
