Young Adult
Thirteen-year-old Ava Bigtree has lived her entire life at
Swamplandia!, her family’s island home and gator-wrestling
theme park in the Florida Everglades. But when illness fells
Ava’s mother, the park’s indomitable headliner, the family
is plunged into chaos; her father withdraws, her sister
falls in love with a spooky character known as the
Dredgeman, and her brilliant big brother, Kiwi, defects to a
rival park called The World of Darkness. As Ava sets out on
a mission through the magical swamps to save them all, we
are drawn into a lush and bravely imagined debut that takes
us to the shimmering edge of reality.
