<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A sequel to Voyage of the Frostheart finds Ash and his ragtag crew of misfits boarding the Frostheart sleigh to the dazzling city of Aurora, where he practices the art of songweaving while searching landmarks for clues about his long-lost parents.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b><i>Nevermoor</i> meets <i>How to Train Your Dragon </i>in the thrilling sequel to <i>Voyage of the Frostheart</i>!</b> <p/>Ash and his ragtag crew of misfits aboard the Frostheart sleigh have just pulled into Aurora: the most dazzling city Ash has ever seen. Icy skyscrapers, wondrous new foods, and bustling city folk who barely have the time of day for a smalltown kid like him. That is, until he masters the art of songweaving--the ability control the giant monsters that lurk in the snow beyond city limits. <p/>But the real reason Ash came to Aurora is to find his long lost parents. The only token they left him before their disappearance was a lullaby; a map disguised as a song that has led him from landmark to landmark, all in the hopes of finding them at the end of it. With the help of his best friend Lunah, the fast-talking ship's navigator, and his yeti guardian, Tobu, Ash is one step closer to finding the family he's always longed for. <p/>He might find, though, that getting what you wished for is more complicated than he imagined, and Ash's world is about to expand in ways he never thought possible.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Praise for <i>Voyage of the Frostheart</i> </b> <p/>* The enthralling dawn of an unmissable voyage.--<i>Kirkus</i>, <b>starred review <p/></b>Littler's world is vivid and evocative, filled with bizarre creatures, lost technology, and dark secrets, as well as colorful characters.--<i>Publishers Weekly <p/></i>Ash's quest to accept himself is relatable, the journey across this freshly envisioned world is intriguing, and the fluid monochromatic illustrations animate the story with quirky hairdos but still leave plenty of room for readers' imaginations.--<i>BCCB<br></i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Jamie Littler is an author-illustrator whose illustration work includes the bestselling <i>Hamish and the Worldstoppers</i> and <i>Wilf the Mighty Worrier</i>, which was shortlisted for the Laugh Out Loud Book Awards.
