Articoli correlati a Zera and the Green Man
On the eve of Zera Green’s fifteenth birthday, she’s finding little to celebrate. Her guardian, Uncle Theodore (whom she’s nicknamed “the Toad”), and his frilly girlfriend, Tiffany, are dragging her to the opening of a fast-food restaurant. There they’ll celebrate The Toad’s latest GMO creation—“beefy fries”—fries made from a combination of cow and potato. (They are said to be delicious, but the potatoes bleed a little when they're sliced.)
As if that weren’t bad enough, Zera’s in trouble at school for mysterious events in biology class that she neither caused nor understands—and her classmates think she is a freak.
The single light in her dark birthday is a gift from her grandmother; a gift that awakens Zera’s passion for plants and helps bring to light her family’s mystical connection to the natural world.
As Zera uncovers her heritage a battle begins—between those who would violate nature in the name of greed and those who would protect it. Zera finds herself in the center of this battle and facing an uncertain destiny, a destiny that will change the world.
