Now that climate change is happening, what do we do?
Sleepy Valley is similar in many ways to the town where you live. Things seem fine, but no one is thinking about the future. Are you ready for what is about to happen to you, and to towns all across the country and around the world?
Marley and Brianne are not, and neither are their parents, their neighbors, or anyone else in Sleepy Valley. When they wake up the day after their high school graduation, their lives are turned upside down, and their plans for the future changed forever.
A series of climate catastrophes descends on Sleepy Valley, and Marley and Brianne must struggle to save their town and the world as they know it. Through their struggles, they find their voices and purposes for living.
The Big Melt challenges us all to confront what is rapidly becoming the greatest threat of the 21st century. This work of contemporary fantasy fiction will inspire you to care, more than ever, about what could happen in your town in the not-too-distant future.
