Publisher's Synopsis
Key Selling Points Fourteen-year-old Charlotte is determined to use her new drone to prove the existence of an elusive lake monster. This story explores family dynamics and intergenerational relationships, as well as themes of conservation, responsibility and doing the right thing. The appeal of mythical creatures like the Loch Ness Monster is universal, and drone pilots are increasingly using drones to search for lake monsters. The author's husband is a drone pilot, and consumer-level drones are becoming increasingly popular. This fictional town and community of Dorothy Lake was inspired by the Shuswap-Okanagan region of British Columbia, which is where the author grew up and is also the home of two lake monsters: the famous Ogopogo of Okanagan Lake and Shuswaggi of Shuswap Lake. Enhanced features (dyslexia-friendly font, cream paper, larger trim size) to increase reading accessibility for dyslexic and other striving readers.
