Description
Thirty years have passed since the Willoughbys were frozen in time. Now, as temperatures rise and icy mountain tops begin to thaw, they are returning. Lois Lowry's latest novel is a hilarious sequel to her previous bestseller, soon to be adapted into an animated film. The story follows Richie Willoughby, who has grown up with a unique set of circumstances. He is the only child of a billionaire family, but his father's fortune is now in jeopardy due to changes in the law. As Richie navigates this new reality, he must also contend with the reappearance of his horrible grandparents, who have thawed out and are returning home. Lois Lowry explores themes of identity, family, and belonging in this entertaining and thought-provoking novel.
