Publisher's Synopsis
In When Leaves Listen, Dottie Noles finds her average life upended by a not-so-average disaster. The fourteen-year-old must navigate the evacuated wasteland that was once New England to transport crucial information, all the while evading an unsettling swarm of humming metallic leaves. Meanwhile, in the world called Sum, an aged seer and a group of enlightened underground rebels seek to protect the worlds from Orville, a charlatan whose work is draining the spiritual lifeforce from the mountains and threatening to destroy the fantastical creatures that reside there. A self-proclaimed nobody, Dottie will suddenly become the most important somebody to save everybody... on Earth and in the world it has just collided with.
