A fast-paced, laugh-out-loud adventure where every wrong turn leads somewhere wonderful. Bursting with hilarious fantasy, science, and heart, this chapter book is a celebration of creative problem-solving and resilience. Any child who enjoys magical adventures with clever twists, thoughtful humor, and meaningful lessons will love reading about Clara’s journey home.
When Clara accepts a simple balloon at a birthday party, she never expects it to pull her underground.
Suddenly, she’s tumbling through twisting tunnels, surrounded by talking moles, consulting a tea-sipping aardvark who loves her encyclopedias, and trying to escape a mysterious cabin with no doorknob on the inside.
There’s also a “not-so-clever” parrot filling in for the Wise Old Owl (who’s on vacation), magic words that don't work (they’re past their expiration date), and a visit to Rhythm & Dance Land, where everyone learns to step on the beat.
Along the way, Clara meets Cosmo, a quick-thinking new friend who helps her discover that for solving problems, logic and imagination make a powerful team.
