Publisher's Synopsis
This illustrated novel combines science fiction, fantasy, and literary adventure in a surprising universe filled with strange creatures. Eva Nine was raised by the robot Muthr in an underground sanctuary. When a marauder destroys it, the 12-year-old girl is forced to flee aboveground for the first time. She is determined to find anyone else like her, and she knows other human beings exist because of one clue: a photograph of a young girl, an adult, and a robot that reads "WondLa." Who are these people? What does this strange word mean? Tony DiTerlizzi honors traditional children's literature in this original space-age adventure-one that is as complex as an alien planet, but as simple as a child's desire to belong.
