** WATTY'S WINNER 2021 **
When the human race faces extinction, the scarecrows will rise.
Erin loved to build scarecrows. She made a dozen in all. Her Pa showed her how. But he’s dead now. Everyone is dead. Well... almost.
The Many Years Storm flooded the world, swept Erin’s brother out to sea, and turned her hilltop farm into a rapidly shrinking island. While hope remains, she must take her chances on the open ocean and find her brother. But Erin doesn’t have the knowledge to build a raft and there’s no one to ask except the last and most terrifying of all her scarecrows—Number Twelve!
Erin needs help. Scratch that. Erin needs a miracle.
'Return to Oz' meets 'The Nightmare Before Christmas' in Neil J Hart’s award-winning adorably terrifying fantasy adventure where climate change has flooded the earth, destroyed humanity, and ushered in a grave new world!
