The Wonderling is the wonder filled story of a one eared fox groundling named “13”, Arthur, or Spike, depending on who you ask. Living many lives on one journey that ends up bringing Arthur (his preferred name) right back where he started with a new purpose and mission will empower young readers to lose themselves in the story and at the same time connect to finding their own true self. The theme woven through the story is the importance of the journey and purpose, not the final destination and how we are changed by the people (or groundlings?) we meet along the way. In the end, we are not alone but supported by the people we choose to surround ourselves with, so surround yourselves with good people. Young readers will be entranced by Mira Bartok’s The Wonderling.
