Join us at The Book Cow for an evening celebrating the launch of bestselling author Lisa Fuller's latest middle-grade adventure, Washpool. Lisa will be joined by special guest, award-winning writer Anthony Eaton who will lead a Q&A session.

A magical middle-grade adventure about two sisters who need to rely on their own wits and each other when they're pulled into a new world, from black&write! fellow and bestselling author, Lisa Fuller. Sisters Bella and Cienna are different in lots of ways. Bella is quiet and shy, and Cienna is always surrounded by friends. One thing they have in common is their love for the local swimming spot, Washpool. One weekend, while they are at Washpool with their family, the girls are transported to a different world. They then encounter enigmatic Esura, who encourages them to venture further into Muse, where the Summer Feast – a time when many peoples gather for a week of fun and games – is due to start.

But when they find out Lady Dragon's egg is missing, Bella and Cienna must use their smarts to help with the search and bringing the egg back to safety before they figure out how to get back home.
