Tomislav Tomić.
Stella Starflake Pearl, twelve, gets the opportunity of a lifetime when her adoptive father decides to break tradition and bring her on an expedition with the male-only Polar Bear Explorer's Club. Danger, adventure, and wonder await as Stella and several other junior explorers are separated from the group and must learn to survive. Bell has created a magical steampunk world--a gentler Golden Compass, if you will.
