Brain freeze from a snowball triggers an idea for her invention report. Enthusiasm drives Zelma Key to research it the old-fashioned way - at Twice Sold Tales - where she butts right into a mystery. The smell of manure and words bursting in air persuade her that the shopkeeper ne...eds help. Nice old Mr. Henry is threatened by a grubby man who says he purchased an unpublished book, but never received it as promised. The septuagenarian bookstore owner doesn't remember doing any such thing. He has three days to deliver it. But his memory is so sporadic; he doesn't remember he has a problem or a deadline. Eleven-year olds Zelma and Max share a secret. They see phenomenon, invisible to everyone else. They pool their brain power and phenomena to locate the missing book or prove dirty politics are behind the threat. What do a statue, fertilizer and a rosette have to do with Mr. Henry's enigma? See how Zelma and Max apply smart technology, retro toys, snowballs and colors to unravel the puzzle. WARNING contains real factoids. This story is set in New Orleans and is flavored with genuine characters and locales. Introducing the Phenomena Series

Brian Michael Bendis (co-creator of Miles Morales, Jessica Jones, and Naomi) and Andre Lima Araujo (A Righteous Thirst for Vengeance) bring you Phenomena, a brand-new fantasy adventure series starting with The Golden City of Eyes Everyone tells you . . . you're going to see somet...hing you've never seen before. That's what everyone said. Who doesn't want to see something they've never seen? Phenomena is the story of a young boy named Bolden and his warrior friend Spike--survivors of a phenomena that took over Earth years ago. Not an apocalypse . . . something far more interesting. We follow Bolden and Spike as they are forced to team up with another lost orphan of the world, Matilde. The trio of heroes go on a globetrotting adventure that takes them to a magical, mysterious place called the Golden City of Eyes. As they quest across this epically crazy new world looking for answers and purpose, they face off against dark forces big and small, changing the world better along the way. In each book in the series, our heroes travel to different parts of the magical world of Phenomena by various modes of transportation, each more and more fantastical than the mode that preceded it. Each journey is personal, and every chapter takes the trio toward a different, visually iconic destination, and each location, character, and chapter reveals clues to the shape of the world and how they got there--and, ultimately, their purpose. With Phenomena, Brian Michael Bendis and Andre Lima Araujo deliver a universe chock full of unforgettable characters, full-tilt action, and stunning imagination and world-building that is perfect for fans of Avatar: The Last Airbender.
