Description

Perfect for fans of Babysitters Club and Zoey and Sassafras, The Wonder Lens Friends is a new beginner chapter series sure to delight STEM-lovers and readers of fantasy and mystery, alike. A self-professed bug lover, Lissa comes across a miraculous magnifying glass on her ninth birthday that spews facts on anything it's pointed at, and it provides special, hidden messages. Sounds fun, but the forest and the garden behind Lissa's house is sick ― poisoned―and all the bugs and flora are in danger. Thankfully, before long she's summoned by a band of fireflies to help. Things take an even stranger turn when the magnifying glass gives Lissa's friend, Wren, the supernatural ability to spit out scientific names, chemistry equations, and facts about bugs that she never knew before! Together, the two friends team up to investigate, all with the clock ticking. Will they save their community and discover what could be hurting their ecosystem? About The Wonder Lens Friends: Join a group of tweenaged friends ― each with their own scientific obsession! ― on a series of adventures spurred by a found magical magnifying glass! Tracy Blom is an award-winning author of over forty published books. Her work has received STEM accreditation, Teacher's Pick Awards, Reader's Favorite Awards, and has appeared in magazines and blogs internationally and domestically. She is very involved in her community and offers creative writing workshops through The Girl Scouts of Ohio, The Ohio Learning Project, Ohio Wesleyan University, and the Arts Castle. In the Spring of 2024 she co-created the Byrd & Blom Storytelling Contest to boost literacy rates across Ohio, and offer one child the chance to have their story turned into a cartoon. Tracy is a host on the Authors On The Air Global Radio Network, which is available in 153 countries and has over 4 million unique listeners. Her show, Books, Kids & Creations, features people worldwide who inspire future generations with their work. She grew up in Cincinnati Ohio, and currently resides in Columbus, Ohio with her husband and two rescue dogs.
