Mayowa and the Sea of Words

The first book in a dazzlingly imaginative adventure trilogy about one girl's power to change the world through the magic of book-jumping.

10-year-old Mayowa uncovers a huge family secret – she can book jump! By jumping on a book, she can harness the emotions inside it and channel them directly into other people.

But Mayowa and her grandpa aren't the only book jumpers in existence. And not everybody wants to use this power for good.

Written by award-winning author Chibundu Onuzo, Mayowa and the Sea of Words is perfect for everyone who knows the true power of a good book!
