Leeva at Last

ebook

Award-winning, bestselling author Sara Pennypacker and illustrator Matthew Cordell come together in this hilarious absurdist tale about a precocious girl who transforms her community in surprising ways.

What are people for?

That's the burning question on the mind of Leeva Spayce Thornblossom.

Fame! says Leeva's mom, the mayor of Nutsmore.

Money! says her dad, the town treasurer.

With the help of an orphaned badger, a risk-averse boy in a hazmat suit, and the town's librarians, Leeva sets off to discover her own answer—setting off a chain of events that will change Nutsmore forever.


What happens when one curious girl starts looking for a better answer?


  • Unlikely Friendships: Leeva's team includes a runaway badger named Bob, a boy who wears a hazmat suit for safety, and the town's kind-hearted librarians.
  • Laugh-Out-Loud Humor: A town run by a fame-obsessed mayor and a money-mad treasurer (who happen to be Leeva's parents) provides endless satirical fun.
  • Finding Your Voice: Follow Leeva as she challenges the ridiculous rules of Nutsmore and discovers that one kid's question can change everything.
  • The Power of Books: With help and inspiration from the public library, Leeva learns that the best answers aren't about fame or money, but about kindness and community.
