Description
Book SynopsisAto and friends return in this moving and rousing follow
up to Crossing the Stream.
Ato is finally going to Nnoma, the bird paradise his late
father helped to build. But when he visits Nana to say goodbye, he overhears
her talking on the phone about something hidden on Nnoma. Bursting with
curiosity, Ato tries to find out more but Nana stays tight-lipped. Could it
have something to do with the letter his father wrote him as a baby, the one
that speaks of ‘enemy storms gathering’?
Ato and his best friends Dzifa and Leslie arrive at Nnoma
where they meet Eyra, the mysterious owner of the island, and Hafsat, a
sad-eyed girl who has also lost her father. They learn that they will be
competing against other children to become an Asafo - an ambassador of Nnoma
and a defender of the Earth - and taking on a series of missions to prove
themselves.
But Ato has a mission of his own - to uncover the secret of
what is hidden on Nnoma, and protect his father’s dream.
