Bloom -- Kenneth Oppel

<b>The perfect book right now for young readers searching for hope, strength, inspiration -- and just a little horticultural havoc.--<i>New York Times</i> <p/>The first book in a can't-put-it-down, can't-read-it-fast-enough action-thriller trilogy that's part <i>Hatchet, </i> part <i>Alien <br></i></b><br>The invasion begins--but not as you'd expect. It begins with rain. Rain that carries seeds. Seeds that sprout--overnight, everywhere. These new plants take over crop fields, twine up houses, and burrow below streets. They bloom--and release toxic pollens. They bloom--and form Venus flytrap-like pods that swallow animals and people. They bloom--everywhere, unstoppable. <p/>Or are they? Three kids on a remote island seem immune to the toxic plants. Anaya, Petra, Seth. They each have strange allergies--and yet<i> not</i> to these plants. What's their secret? Can they somehow be the key to beating back this invasion? They'd better figure it out fast, because it's starting to rain again....<br><br><b>Author:</b> Kenneth Oppel<br><b>Publisher:</b> Yearling Books<br><b>Published:</b> 05/04/2021<br><b>Pages:</b> 336<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.50lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 7.60h x 5.20w x 0.90d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9781524773038<br><b>Age Range:</b> 10-UP<br><br><b>Accelerated Reader:</b><br><b>Reading Level:</b> 4.8<br><b>Point Value:</b> 10<br><b>Interest Level:</b> Middle Grade<br><b>Quiz #/Name: </b>508962 / Bloom<br><br><p><b>About the Author</b><br>KENNETH OPPEL
