The Flown Sky

Presenting Matthew Olshan’s new book for children and young adults:

Allele Island is a beachcomber’s paradise for a charming little primate named Eena Beena, who tends her stretch of beach—and the hapless castaways who wash up there—as if it were her own private garden. Everything changes when a deranged ape named Prospero arrives with plans to kidnap the island’s queen for an evil experiment that threatens the world. A novel of adventure, word play, and high literary nonsense!

    Propero, the deranged ape . . . . I look forward to meeting him. He sounds like the kind of guy we should all watch out for. Just in case . . . .

    A wonderful “read”! And that voice: like the velvet fog himself!
