INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Seymour, Jeff

Nadya Skylung and the Cloudship Rescue

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Brett Helquist. When pirates capture the adults of the cloudship Orion, it's up to plucky Nadya (who tends to the cloud garden that powers the ship) and her fellow orphan crew-members to rescue them. Helquist's dreamy black-and-white illustrations further bring Seymour's well-built world-in-the-clouds to life. The airy fantasy leaves some plot threads dangling--including one involving a civilization-destroying shadow--suggesting a sequel will follow.
